'Wicked' prostitute jailed for life

A prostitute was sentenced to custody for life at the Old Bailey yesterday for murdering a wealthy banker who tape-recorded his own horrific death.

Judge Henry Pownall QC told 20-year-old Samantha Enoch of Clapham, south London: "In this court there have been some calculated, calculating and callous defendants, but few to touch you ... you are dangerous, devious and wicked." Enoch had claimed she had nothing to do with the death of Syrian-born Habib Saliba, who was stabbed 26 times at his flat in London in June last year. Ronald Tamplin, 27, who was also accused of murder, was cleared.
