The aunt of murdered law graduate Zara Aleena has called for the justice system to “ensure murderers face their sentencing” after triple killer Kyle Clifford refused to attend his sentence hearing for the murders of Louise, Hannah and Carol Hunt.

On Monday, Clifford was handed a whole-life order for the murders of Louise, 25, Hannah, 28, and their mother Carol, 61, the wife of BBC racing commentator John Hunt, the false imprisonment and rape of Louise, and possession of a crossbow and knife.
