Mrs Hasanovic made three statements to police about her estranged husband Hajrudin Hasanovic, who had been harassing her over the phone and in the street in the months before her death.

A week later on the morning of her death on July 29 she contacted police to make another statement.
She told how Hajrudin Hasanovic had been calling her mother's home in Nyewood Lane where she was staying and leaving messages on the answerphone.
Mrs Hasanovic's mother Sharon De Souza told Lewes Crown Court: "We got back from her solicitor's telephone conference and pretty much as soon as we got in the phone was ringing.
"That really alarmed Cassie. She was unnerved by it."
