Man Proved Guilty of Killing His Pregnant Girlfriend

Eight years ago, Tasha Rosette was stabbed multiple times and was slit in the throat. Her boyfriend, Amjad Khan, was the main suspect eight years ago. Tasha Rosette wad pregnant when killed by her boyfriend. She was stabbed to death outside her basement suite in Surrey, B.C.

In 2006 Amjad Khan and his "alleged accomplice" Naim Mohammed Saghir were both arrested and charged with murder. Two years after they were convicted with murder and conspiracy to commit murder. The BC Court of Appeal over turned those charges and requested a new trial.

On Friday, Amjad Khan was found guilty of first degree murder. Though, Naim Mohammed Saghir was found not guilty.

This relates to law 12 in multiple ways. The first way is when they were charged with murder and conspiracy to commit murder which is mens rea and actus rea. This means guilty mind and guilty act.  Another way, is the case was brought to B.C. Court of Appeal where the defendant can try to appeal the charges. The last way it connects to law 12 is the murder itself, which is clearly a crime.

How I See It...

This case is sad and also very educational. It is so frightening that someone would actually do that to their loved one, let alone a pregnant girlfriend. This case sums up a great deal of law 12, which sadly this tragic event is educational to us.
