Kilburn nurse jailed for Finsbury Park murder faces being struck off medical register
Mental health worker doused lover in petrol and set her alight
A psychiatric nurse jailed for life for murdering his lover in a jealous frenzy faces being booted out of his profession next week.
Aiah Tondoneh, 44, of Shoot Up Hill, Kilburn, pour petrol over 50 year-old Donna Drepaul and set her alight at her home in Finsbury Park in July 2010.
On January 13, a panel at the Nursing and Midwifery Council will decide if his fitness to practise as mental nurse is impaired by his conviction.
At Tondoneh’s Old Bailey trial in May last year, jurors heard he was married but had been seeing Ms Drepaul for four years.
