A chartered accountant of Indian-origin was stabbed to death by her ex-boyfriend after he saw pictures she posted on Facebook with a new man.
Apparently, Mathurasingh and Bristol met in Trinadad and continued their relationship even after she came to Britain in summer 2008, Denison added.
Paul Bristol, 25, flew from him home in Trinidad to London to try and win Camile Mathurasingh back after she had ended their long distance relationship.
According to Times online, the jury was told that Mr. Bristol had bombarded Ms. Mathurasingh with text messages and telephone calls, including 37 in one day, before flying to London.
Simon Denison, QC for the prosecution said, “Only he can say what happened between them in the minutes before he killed her and what led him to kill her.
“But it may become obvious he did so in a frenzied attack with a knife. He stabbed her about 20 times in the neck and chest and back and hip and leg. She died on the floor of the kitchen,” the court was told.
The incident apparently came to light when Bristol, who was taken to the hospital after his car crashed, confessed to police.
Bristol denies murder but admits manslaughter.
