-..deceit...

0:00:140:00:15

0:00:150:00:17

-Every criminal case is a distinct

-challenge for the detective.

0:00:170:00:21

-Discovering the truth,

-takes patience and curiosity.

0:00:260:00:30

-Tonight...

0:00:380:00:39

-..I'm researching the international

-hunt for an American...

0:00:390:00:43

-..after his girlfriend's body

-was found at a Cardiff hotel.

0:00:430:00:47

-We knew that he would be landing

-in Qatar in 38 minutes.

0:00:490:00:53

-South Wales Police relate their

-efforts to speak to him by phone.

0:00:550:00:59

-I will talk to the girl's family

-in Cardiff about their loss.

0:01:080:01:12

-It's a sentence that I feel...

0:01:130:01:16

-..I'm going to have to live

-through each and every day.

0:01:160:01:19

-Cardiff Bay, December 2014.

0:01:420:01:45

-While thousands

-were getting ready...

0:01:480:01:51

-..to congregate in the city

-on New Year's Eve.

0:01:510:01:54

-..a sinister case had landed on the

-desks of South Wales detectives.

0:01:550:01:59

-The manager of the Future Inns hotel

-had made an astonishing discovery.

0:02:110:02:16

-He'd entered Room 203,

-and inside the room...

0:02:240:02:29

-..he found a woman's body

-lying in the bed.

0:02:290:02:33

-At the bedside,

-there was a note...

0:02:330:02:35

-..which made him think

-that she'd killed herself.

0:02:360:02:39

-So, he called the police.

0:02:390:02:42

-This footage was filmed

-by the forensic team...

0:02:420:02:45

-..after they were called

-to the hotel.

0:02:460:02:48

-At first glance, the circumstances

-of the death were unclear.

0:02:490:02:53

-The room itself

-was an ordinary hotel room.

0:02:530:02:57

-As you walked in,

-there was a bathroom on one side...

0:02:580:03:01

-..and inside the bathroom, there

-were wet towels on the floor.

0:03:010:03:05

-As you walked into the room

-itself...

0:03:070:03:09

-..there were empty bottles

-of alcohol on the side.

0:03:090:03:13

-In the bed, was the body of a woman.

0:03:140:03:17

-All you could see was her head.

0:03:170:03:19

-The bedclothes had been pulled up

-to her nose.

0:03:190:03:24

-Near the bed, a note had been left

-containing the words...

0:03:260:03:29

-.."Sorry we came to an end.

-I love you."

0:03:300:03:35

-When I first looked at her,

-I couldn't see any injuries.

0:03:360:03:41

-When the bedclothes were removed

-from her body...

0:03:420:03:45

-..it looked as if

-she had been placed in the bed.

0:03:450:03:48

-When we examined her face and neck,

-we found red marks...

0:03:500:03:55

-..on her cheek and on her neck.

0:03:550:03:57

-It was clear to us

-that something was wrong...

0:04:010:04:04

-..and that something else

-had happened in that room.

0:04:040:04:07

-In the bag, there were bank cards.

0:04:100:04:12

-These confirmed that the body

-in the bed was Nadine Aburas.

0:04:130:04:18

-She lived fewer than 100 metres from

-the hotel in a flat in Cardiff Bay.

0:04:230:04:28

-Her family lived about a mile away.

0:04:290:04:32

-Detectives went to their home

-to break the news.

0:04:340:04:37

-The feeling was indescribable.

-It was horrible.

0:04:430:04:46

-It was like I wasn't even there

-anymore.

0:04:460:04:50

-That part of me had gone

-with Nadine.

0:04:500:04:53

-Nadine Aburas was 28 years old.

0:04:550:04:57

-They were a very close family.

0:04:580:05:00

-He said that she'd gone.

0:05:030:05:06

-I said, "That's it. He's done it."

-I knew.

0:05:140:05:16

-The mother immediately suspected

-that Nadine's boyfriend...

0:05:180:05:23

-..was responsible for her death.

0:05:230:05:25

-A man named Sammy Almahri.

0:05:260:05:28

-The hotel confirmed...

0:05:350:05:37

-..that Room 203

-had been booked in his name.

0:05:380:05:40

-At the time,

-we didn't know much about him.

0:05:410:05:44

-We knew that he was American...

0:05:440:05:47

-..but we didn't know much more

-than that.

0:05:470:05:51

-He was 45 years old

-and lived in New York.

0:05:520:05:55

-But any other information about him

-was limited.

0:05:560:06:00

-He purported to be in the FBI

-to Nadine's family.

0:06:020:06:05

-A successful businessman.

0:06:050:06:07

-There were lots of different

-stories.

0:06:070:06:09

-The truth was he lived in a basement

-flat in New York.

0:06:090:06:13

-He worked either in a grocer's shop

-or as a limo driver.

0:06:130:06:17

-The couple met online in 2012

-on a website called MuslimMatch.com

0:06:190:06:25

-They started a relationship.

0:06:250:06:28

-In 2013, he came here to Cardiff

-to visit Nadine...

0:06:300:06:33

-..and during the summer of 2014,

-Nadine went to New York to meet him.

0:06:340:06:38

-But, after returning from New York,

-Nadine contacted the police.

0:06:380:06:43

-She said that

-she had been raped there.

0:06:460:06:48

-He brutally attacked her

-and violated her.

0:06:530:06:56

-He photographed her

-in various forms...

0:06:560:07:01

-..and states of undress.

0:07:010:07:04

-She suffered a horrific time...

0:07:040:07:07

-..which she tried to keep from us

-when she returned.

0:07:070:07:10

-He had threatened to share the

-pictures of her on the Internet.

0:07:120:07:16

-At the time, Nadine didn't take

-her complaint any further.

0:07:160:07:20

-But now, this evidence was valuable

-to the detectives.

0:07:200:07:24

-The marker on our records

-indicated...

0:07:250:07:27

-..that he may have been someone

-who was violent towards her...

0:07:270:07:32

-..and that's when it became

-a murder investigation.

0:07:320:07:36

-A post-mortem examination

-revealed...

0:07:380:07:40

-..that there were 17 marks

-and bruises on Nadine's body.

0:07:410:07:45

-The evidence on her neck showed

-that she had been strangled.

0:07:450:07:50

-But there was no sign

-of Sammy Almahri.

0:07:540:07:57

-Detectives were now racing to gather

-evidence of all his movements.

0:07:570:08:02

-They discovered that he'd arrived

-in London on December 27...

0:08:040:08:08

-..and had met Nadine there and

-travelled to Cardiff the next day.

0:08:090:08:13

-The CCTV pictures showed the couple

-arriving at Nadine's flat.

0:08:160:08:21

-On December 30, Sammy Almahri

-quarrelled with her brothers.

0:08:240:08:28

-They asked him to leave Cardiff and

-escorted him to the railway station.

0:08:300:08:35

-But he never got on the train.

0:08:370:08:39

-He bought a bottle of gin,

-took a taxi back to Cardiff Bay...

0:08:410:08:45

-..and booked a room

-at the Future Inns.

0:08:460:08:48

-He phoned Nadine from the hotel...

0:08:510:08:53

-..and said that he had left

-his passport in her flat.

0:08:540:08:58

-At nine o'clock that night...

0:09:050:09:07

-..CCTV cameras show Nadine

-arriving at the hotel...

0:09:080:09:11

-..before going to his room.

0:09:110:09:13

-We know from the CCTV footage and

-from people working at the hotel...

0:09:150:09:20

-..that the couple had left

-and gone to City Road for a meal.

0:09:200:09:25

-They went to a restaurant

-where Nadine used to work.

0:09:270:09:32

-We know that they were arguing

-in the restaurant on City Road.

0:09:320:09:38

-At eleven o'clock,

-they arrived back at the hotel.

0:09:440:09:47

-These are the last images

-of Nadine Aburas alive.

0:09:530:09:57

-Just after midnight, Almahri left

-and went to the Grosvenor casino.

0:10:090:10:14

-He registered at reception, before

-going to the bar to drink tequila.

0:10:150:10:20

-Then he returned to the hotel...

0:10:230:10:25

-..and ordered two bottles of beer

-to take to his room.

0:10:250:10:29

-At three in the morning,

-Almahri left the hotel...

0:10:330:10:37

-..after asking for directions

-to the M4.

0:10:370:10:40

-He drove to Heathrow

-in Nadine's car.

0:10:470:10:50

-He parked the car in Terminal 5.

0:10:530:10:55

-But, by the time detectives

-received this evidence...

0:11:040:11:08

-..it was too late.

0:11:080:11:09

-Sammy Almahri was on a plane

-to Qatar.

0:11:100:11:14

-To be honest, there was

-something of a panic...

0:11:150:11:18

-..because we knew that

-within 38 minutes...

0:11:190:11:21

-..he would be landing in Qatar.

0:11:220:11:24

-You have to remember

-that it was New Year's Eve...

0:11:240:11:27

-..and he was arriving

-in a totally different country.

0:11:270:11:31

-We needed an international arrest

-warrant, we needed Interpol.

0:11:330:11:37

-All things that take time

-on a normal day...

0:11:370:11:40

-..but on New Year's Eve,

-practically impossible.

0:11:400:11:44

-He landed without being arrested.

0:11:440:11:46

-He had managed to escape.

0:11:480:11:50

-That's when I hit rock bottom.

0:11:510:11:53

-I thought, "That's it, he's gone,

-he's got away with it.

0:11:540:11:57

-"He's left the country.

-He's murdered my daughter.

0:11:570:12:00

-"That's it, it's the end."

0:12:000:12:02

-We wanted justice for Nadine...

0:12:020:12:05

-..and we needed to know that this

-person couldn't hurt anybody else.

0:12:050:12:09

-He caught another flight

-to Dar es Salaam in Tanzania.

0:12:110:12:14

-From there, there was a risk

-that he could disappear altogether.

0:12:160:12:20

-To know where your suspect is,

-to know where they're going...

0:12:220:12:26

-..and to be able

-to do nothing about it...

0:12:260:12:29

-..is probably one of the most

-frustrating periods I've ever had.

0:12:290:12:33

-The police now suspected

-that Almahri was in Tanzania.

0:12:350:12:39

-It was a race to catch him,

-before he disappeared again.

-New Year's Day, 2015.

0:12:550:12:56

-It wasn't a good start to the year

-for South Wales Police detectives.

0:12:570:13:02

-The day after the body

-of Nadine Aburas was found...

0:13:030:13:06

-..at a hotel in Cardiff...

0:13:070:13:08

-..the man suspected of her murder

-had escaped to Africa.

0:13:090:13:14

-Detectives turned to the media

-and made a public appeal...

0:13:140:13:18

-..entreating him to give himself up.

0:13:180:13:21

-Sammy, please...

0:13:210:13:23

-..I am asking you,

-as Nadine's mother...

0:13:230:13:27

-..please hand yourself in

-to the authorities...

0:13:290:13:32

-..and please help us

-find the answers that we need...

0:13:320:13:37

-..so we can let Nadine

-rest in peace.

0:13:370:13:41

-But there was a ray of hope.

0:13:430:13:44

-He had taken Nadine's phone

-with him.

0:13:450:13:48

-Fortunately for us, he was still

-using Nadine's mobile phone.

0:13:490:13:55

-Because of this, we were aware

-of his general location...

0:13:550:14:00

-..and so we could focus...

0:14:000:14:02

-..on where the mobile phone

-was being used.

0:14:020:14:06

-The data from the phone

-and from the use of his bank card...

0:14:080:14:13

-..confirmed that he was still

-in Tanzania.

0:14:130:14:16

-Detective Gareth Morgan decided

-to telephone him.

0:14:160:14:20

-He alleged that Nadine was still

-alive when he left the hotel.

0:14:550:14:59

-He also said that he'd helped her...

0:15:000:15:03

-..to try and strangle herself

-with a belt.

0:15:030:15:06

-He was very erratic

-in those conversations.

0:15:200:15:23

-It was very difficult to understand

-whether he was intoxicated.

0:15:230:15:27

-He was certainly irrational.

0:15:280:15:30

-It was clear to me

-that he was lying.

0:15:300:15:33

-But the detectives knew

-that Almahri was in Tanzania.

0:15:520:15:55

-On January 2,

-Sammy Almahri phoned them back.

0:15:580:16:01

-This time, he had company.

0:16:010:16:04

-I think Sammy Almahri played a game

-from the start.

0:16:300:16:34

-Negotiation showed that.

0:16:340:16:36

-There were times

-during negotiation...

0:16:360:16:38

-..when he had other women

-on the line and in the background.

0:16:390:16:43

-He made threats

-to kill other people.

0:16:430:16:45

-He teased and taunted me, really.

0:16:450:16:48

-He contacted the family

-several times too.

0:17:110:17:13

-He'd call us using Nadine's phone.

0:17:160:17:18

-He didn't even bother

-having that respect.

0:17:180:17:21

-He'd call us from a nightclub

-and leave a voicemail.

0:17:210:17:25

-We could hear music.

0:17:250:17:27

-It was so horrible.

-It was a horrible experience.

0:17:270:17:30

-It was as though murdering my sister

-wasn't enough for him.

0:17:300:17:35

-He had to torment us further.

0:17:350:17:37

-Almahri had left his own phone

-at Nadine's flat.

0:17:460:17:50

-The detectives sent it

-for forensic examination.

0:17:500:17:54

-I went to meet the digital experts

-at Sytech...

0:17:590:18:02

-..who were asked to work

-on the case.

0:18:030:18:05

-They explained to me how they

-take phones apart and restore data.

0:18:050:18:10

-The first thing we do is to strip it

-down like this.

0:18:110:18:15

-Then we take it down to the circuit

-board and expose the chips.

0:18:150:18:19

-We would take off this chip

-and it would look like this then.

0:18:200:18:23

-May I pick it up?

0:18:250:18:27

-This little card can hold

-a lot of information.

0:18:290:18:32

-Yes.

0:18:320:18:33

-We can retrieve things

-such as text messages, calls...

0:18:330:18:37

-..web history and photos.

0:18:370:18:39

-We can also retrieve deleted data.

0:18:390:18:41

-On Almahri's phone, there was

-special software called spyware.

0:18:430:18:47

-He could read

-and watch everything...

0:18:470:18:50

-..on Nadine's phone from his phone.

0:18:510:18:53

-You can read SMS messages,

-you can look at photos, videos...

0:18:550:18:59

-..the handset's location data

-and things like that.

0:19:000:19:03

-Also on Almahri's phone, were

-threatening texts and messages.

0:19:040:19:09

-We knew that Sammy Almahri

-was a jealous and possessive man...

0:19:110:19:15

-..and that he liked

-to control Nadine.

0:19:150:19:18

-We obtained evidence

-from his phone...

0:19:180:19:21

-..a message that he'd originally

-left threatening her.

0:19:220:19:26

-Those threats

-were excellent evidence...

0:19:260:19:29

-..in showing the motive

-for this crime.

0:19:300:19:32

-South Wales detectives

-travelled to Tanzania...

0:19:400:19:43

-..to help police there

-search for him.

0:19:430:19:46

-They followed the movements

-of Nadine's phone...

0:19:460:19:50

-..around the country

-trying to catch him.

0:19:500:19:52

-Information from the phone

-led the police to a rural area...

0:19:520:19:56

-..about ten hours

-from Dar es Salaam.

0:19:560:19:58

-There, on January 19,

-local police found him on a farm...

0:19:590:20:05

-..near the town of Iringa.

0:20:050:20:07

-He was arrested and held in custody.

0:20:110:20:14

-Two months later, he was transported

-from Tanzania to Wales.

0:20:150:20:20

-I think it was a major coup

-to capture Sammy Almahri...

0:20:210:20:25

-..as quickly as we did,

-given the circumstances.

0:20:250:20:28

-We brought him back.

-We extradited him from Tanzania.

0:20:290:20:32

-This had never been done

-between the two countries.

0:20:320:20:35

-The speed and efficiency with which

-that was done was remarkable.

0:20:360:20:39

-We were so happy and relieved that

-he didn't get to torment us anymore.

0:20:410:20:45

-And that he had to deal with

-the consequences as he should.

0:20:460:20:51

-At Cardiff Crown Court,

-in October 2016...

0:21:020:21:05

-..Sammy Almahri confessed

-to manslaughter...

0:21:060:21:09

-..but denied murdering Nadine.

0:21:090:21:11

-He said that he suffered

-from a mental illness...

0:21:110:21:15

-..and that he'd killed her

-after hearing voices in his head.

0:21:150:21:19

-He said that it was

-the voice of God.

0:21:190:21:21

-But, unexpectedly, on the second day

-of the trial, he changed his mind.

0:21:210:21:26

-He pleaded guilty to murder.
