LONDON: A former member of Irish band Boyzone on Monday told a court how he was abused by his “manipulative” ex-girlfriend accused of murdering her French nanny and burning the body afterwards. Kouider, 35, and her 40-year-old partner Ouissem Medouni, are accused of the murder of Sophie Lionnet. When Lionnet’s remains were found in the garden, Medouni told the fire brigade he had burned a sheep. “I was broken, emotionally broken but I loved her,” he told court. Kouider and Medouni have admitted perverting the course of justice by attempting to burn the body, but deny murder.
