KINGSTON, Ont. — A woman accused of killing her three daughters says she was told only after their deaths that her husband had said he wanted to kill the eldest one.
Tooba Yahya, 42, testified that her brother told her at the funerals that her husband asked him for help to kill 19-year-old Zainab.
Yahya, her husband Mohammad Shafia, 58, and their son Hamed, 21, have each pleaded not guilty to four counts of first-degree murder.
They're accused of killing sisters Zainab, Sahar, 17, and Geeti, 13, along with Shafia's first wife in a polygamous marriage, over family honour.
The bodies were found June 30, 2009, in a car at the bottom of a canal in Kingston, Ont., where the Montreal family stopped for the night on their way back from Niagara Falls, Ont.
Yahya told a police interrogator that she, Shafia and Hamed were at the canal that night, but she is testifying now that was a lie.
