IVF row claim on ‘wife killer’

A GAY pharmacist killed his wife because she refused IVF over his flings with men, a court heard.

Mitesh Patel, 37, allegedly suffocated Jessica, 34, at their home in May.

Nicholas Campbell QC said: “My suggestion is when you and Jessica had last spoken about IVF she [refused] because you had not changed your ways.”

Patel said this was not true. Patel, of Middlesbrough, denies murder and the trial, at Teesside crown court, continues.
