Ms Oudeh, who has a two-year-old son, and Mrs Saleem, who has five other children, were born in Syria.
Hunting them down
It emerged Ms Oudeh had dumped Tarin, of Evelyn Road, Sparkhill, Birmingham, in the weeks before his attack after learning he had a secret wife and children back in the Middle East.
On the evening of the attack he followed Ms Saleem and her daughter to a shisha lounge before hunting them down elsewhere, police said.
Det Ch Supt Mark Payne said police were in contact with Ms Oudeh from the shisha lounge and were trying to reach her but failed to catch up with her before Tarin did.
He said: "As we were trying to get to her, she was moving on.
"We never got to the same place as she was tragically before the events unfolded."
The circumstances of the stabbing are being investigated by the Independent Office for Police Conduct (IOPC).
