A man who stabbed his estranged wife in a chilling attack has been given a life sentence.
Satpreet Singh Gandhi, 37, stabbed Harleen Kaur Satpreet Gandhi at her home in Victoria Road, Headingley on September 5 last year. In the days before, he had loitered outside her flat on four separate occasions. On the day of her murder, Gandhi had taken a taxi and armed himself with a knife. He confronted Harleen, accused her of cheating on him and lashed out over their child being kept from him by her parents in India before stabbing her. She died on the doorstep of her flat.
Officers were called to reports of a disturbance at the address at around 6.26pm. The 32-year-old mum-of-two was found unconscious and was taken to hospital for treatment but was pronounced dead a short time later. A post-mortem examination found she had died as a result of a stab wound to the chest.
