Battered bride was possessed by spirit, 'holy man™' claimed
A 19-year-old woman was diagnosed as being under the influence of an evil spirit in the week before she died at the home of the Leeds family into which she had married, a jury heard.

A "holy man™" in Bradford did not meet the girl but told her in-laws about her "problem" after performing a ceremony involving a top she wore, the jury at Leeds Crown Court heard yesterday.

Sabia Rani, from Pakistani Kashmir, moved to Leeds in December 2005, to live with the husband she had contracted to marry at the tender age of 15. They went through a ceremony in Palakh, Kashmir, and another in Leeds. But within five months, the bride was dead in the bathroom of her new home in Oakwood Grange, Roundhay, Leeds.
Oops.
Simon Myerson QC, prosecuting for the Crown, told the court earlier that doctors believed her body had simply given up under the stress of 11 rib fractures and massive bruising, which must have been inflicted at her home because she never went out.
That's very unexpected, isn't it?
