A boyfriend who tried to kill his girlfriend in a screwdriver horror attack after chasing her into a corner shop has been jailed for 19 years.
Jealous Ahmed Ali, 34, told his terrified girlfriend, Olivia Spinks, 'you're going to die to die' as he chased her down the street in the attack in Cardiff, in February.
Ms Spinks is seen on CCTV 'running for her life' and trying to seek shelter in a nearby shop - but Ali chases her inside before stabbing her in the head and neck with a screwdriver.
CCTV footage inside the shop shows Olivia desperately trying to shut the door as Ali forces his way through.
Ms Spinks was able to walk outside the shop after being repeatedly stabbed - but then collapsed and said: 'I know I'm dying. Tell my mum I love her.'
Prosecutor Michael Jones QC said the attack, which was carried out in Grangetown, Cardiff, on February 24 last year, was: 'a deliberate, relentless and brutal attack.'
