LONDON: A husband who cut his wife’s body into more than 200 pieces and then paid a friend £50 (RM300) to help him dump her remains in a river in the east of England has been jailed for life with a minimum term of 19 years.

Nicholas Metson, 28, stabbed Holly Bramley, 26, at least four times in March 2023 before dismembering her and storing her body parts for a week in the kitchen larder at the flat they shared in Shuttleworth House, Stamp End, Lincoln.
