A white teenage mother was stabbed repeatedly and her body dumped in a canal after she clashed with the Asian family of her lovechild, a court has heard.Laura Wilson, 17, had a brief relationship with Ishaq Hussain, 22, who lived close to her before giving birth to their daughter in June last year.
Sheffield Crown Court was told that Hussain failed to acknowledge the child as his own and did not offer any support, leading to friction between Laura, her family and Hussain.
Things came to a head last October when she went to Hussain's house and told his family he was the father of the child, prosecutor Nicholas Campbell QC said.
Hussain and his friend, who also had an affair with her and was said to be her first love, plotted to kill her, it is alleged.
They sent a flurry of text messages to one another.
They adopted the language of the cult British film 'Four Lions' about Islamic terrorists and mounted a 'mission to kill Laura Wilson', said Mr Campbell.
Asghar allegedly sent a text message to Hussain which said: 'I'm gonna send that kaffir bitch straight to hell.'
He later told a friend that Laura and her friends had brought trouble to his door and he was 'very angry'.
Mr Campbell said Asghar sent text messages to the friend using words to the effect of 'I'm going to kill Laura.'
'She was a loose cannon and they had to get rid of her,' he said.
Hussain, of Ferham Road, Rotherham, and Ashtiaq Asghar, also from Rotherham, deny murdering Miss Wilson some time between October 8 and October 11 last year.
The teenage student went missing from her home in Holmes and her body was found two days later in a canal.
Mr Campbell told the jury: 'The two defendants are jointly responsible for her murder.' Read More
