A man who stabbed his wife of nine years 23 times, before licking her blood from the knife in 2007, has been sentenced to death.

High Court judge Luka Kimaru heard that the father of three was angry because his wife had received a call from one of her customers, something he had warned her about.

In his ruling, the judge noted that this was the worst form of domestic violence.
