Ms Javed, about 17 weeks pregnant when she was pushed from Arthur's Seat, used her dying words to reveal it was her abusive husband who caused her to fall about 50ft before her body came to a rest.

Daniyah Rafique, 24, managed to reach the dying employment lawyer on the side of the hill, where she was told: "Don't let my husband near me, he pushed me."

Police Constable Rhiannon Clutton, 35, was told by Ms Javed that her husband did it because she "told him I wanted to end (the marriage)".
