Speaking about the outcome, senior investigating officer, Detective Chief Inspector Caroline Corfield, said: “This was a shocking, cold-blooded murder, motivated by anger and greed.
"Our investigation revealed Jasbinder Gahir to be a manipulative, materialistic man capable of deceiving those closest to him over many years. I have no doubt that Bally’s recent enforcement of the financial order against him was the motivation behind her murder.
“Jasbinder has never shown any remorse for killing Balvinder but he continued to weave a web of lies in the courtroom. The jury have rejected his account and we welcome this verdict.
