The heartbroken sister of a woman allegedly stabbed to death in a Western Sydney home has remembered her as loving and caring.

Nunia Kurualeba, 21, was found dead with two stab wounds to her chest after police were called to the Great Western Highway in Kingswood about 1.40pm yesterday.

Her partner Jeremaia Tuwai, also aged 21, allegedly fled the scene and sparked a six-hour manhunt before he was found and arrested hours later the next suburb over in Penrith.

Tuwai was charged with domestic violence murder.

Kurualeba had moved from Fiji to Sydney to be closer to her younger sister and worked as a housekeeper.

"She was a loving sister to me, she always cared about me, every time when I needed her, she was here," her sister Laite Kurualeba told 9News.

"I have a four-month-old baby that she always cared about."

Kurualeba was happiest when she was playing netball or when she was surrounded by friends and family.

"She loved everyone, she had a lot of friends," Laite Kurualeba said.

"She's funny, she makes noise, every time she comes home I tell her to keep her voice level down, she doesn't listen."

Kurualeba thought she had found love with Tuwai, also from Fiji, who she dated for a year before they moved in together at the Kingswood unit.

It was there Tuwai allegedly stabbed her with a kitchen knife.

"She didn't deserve what happened to her," Laite Kurualeba said. 

Tuwai was formally refused bail at Penrith Court today, where he appeared via videolink.

His lawyer requested that he receive mental health treatment while behind bars.

The number of Australians changing jobs has fallen to pre-pandemic levels, according to new data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

The number of people changing their employer fell to just 8 per cent in the 12 months to February and it has some experts suggesting "quiet quitting" could be in the past.

"This was down 1.5 percentage points from 9.6 per cent in February 2023 and back to around what we typically saw during the five years leading up to the COVID-19 pandemic," Bjorn Jarvis, ABS head of labour statistics, said.

While the period after the pandemic saw a spike in the number of people changing jobs, recent economic conditions have brought that rate back down to its pre-pandemic average.

The job mobility rate, which measures how many people changed jobs, was lower in almost every industry.

This was most pronounced in the arts and recreation, transport, post and warehousing sectors.

In information media and telecommunications, 1.8 per cent more people changed jobs.

The overall "job mobility" rate fell for both men and women but fell by more for men.

"As a result, job mobility over the past year was slightly higher for women at 8.2 per cent, compared to 7.9 per cent for men, after having been higher for men for most of the past decade," Jarvis said.

Some experts say the lower job mobility rate could be a symptom of current economic conditions.

"The sharp drop in job mobility for the first time in three years is a clear indication that the power balance in the Australian job market is shifting," human resources firm Reward Gateway's managing director Kylie Green said.

"Contrary to the 'quiet quitting' and 'loud labouring' trends that gathered steam during the pandemic, external pressures including the rising cost of living and widespread redundancies has led to a 4 per cent increase in tenure across all age groups."

Quiet quitting refers to an employee doing the bare minimum tasks required in a job, often with a level of disengagement.

Loud labouring refers to those who spend more time talking about work than actually doing it.

Besides the lower rate of job mobility, the latest ABS data showed there were more than 1.9 million potential workers, meaning people who were not working but wanted to be.

That was up from 1.8 million in February 2023.

In February, 82 per cent of unemployed people reported having difficulty finding work.

A former nurse accused of sexually molesting three female patients and a student nurse has said he was merely performing medical procedures.

Ali Khamis Moh'd was a clinical nurse specialist at Sydney's Norwest and Nepean private hospitals, attending to patients scheduled to have surgery in intensive care and coronary care units.

The 44-year-old is on trial at Parramatta District Court after pleading not guilty to five counts of intentional sexual touching without consent and three counts of sexual intercourse without consent.

The eight charges, related to alleged offending between December 2018 and March 2022, are aggravated given the four women were under his authority at the time.

Today, crown prosecutor Sarah Beaumont told jurors that while Moh'd was teaching a 21-year-old student nurse how to listen for bowel sounds using a stethoscope, he grabbed her underwear, pulled them away from her skin and looked at her genital area.

He has been accused of molesting a 58-year-old patient over two days by inserting his finger into her anus while giving her an enema and putting his finger into her vagina while shaving her groin before an operation.

While looking after a 25-year-old female patient after she had completed a heart operation, Moh'd was asked to inspect a wound on her groin area.

As he was massaging the wound, he allegedly touched her vagina before inserting his fingers, Beaumont told the jury.

That patient started crying after he left the room before calling her doctor to find out the proper procedure for massaging a groin wound.

She filed a complaint with the hospital before going to police.

Jurors heard of alleged conduct around a fourth patient, a 67-year-old woman admitted for heart surgery.

After she had a shower, Moh'd helped place stickers on her body connected to a heart monitoring machine.

While he was doing this, he allegedly touched her breast and squeezed her nipple.

"You have nice breasts for someone your age," he's alleged to have said.

"Get lost, you're embarrassing me," the patient allegedly said before swatting his hand away.

On the same day after she complained of back pain, he sat her down on the bed and gave her a back massage with some cream.

"You can touch me too if you want to," he's alleged to have said.

Beaumont said Moh'd had a tendency to be sexually attracted to female patients under his care and to act on those interests.

She said jurors would be asked to consider whether the nurse's actions were done for proper health reasons.

"A sexual purpose has no place in genuine medical treatment," she told the court.

Defence barrister Linda Barnes said her client denied sexually touching or having sexual intercourse with any of the four women.

"In short, Mr Moh'd's case is that any contact he had with the complainants was for medical purposes, that is for health or hygiene purposes or for educational purposes," she told the jury.

He had rejected prosecutors' claims that certain sexual acts took place or that he made sexualised comments to the women, Barnes said.

One of the main issues would be the honesty and reliability of the complainants, including their memories and perceptions of events, jurors heard.

Moh'd came before the court an innocent man who had never been charged or convicted of any other offence, Barnes said.

The trial with Judge Ian Bourke continues tomorrow.

The traumatising ordeal of a mother left stranded in Sudan after being exit-trafficked by her husband continued when she tried to reunite with her young children.

Mohamed Ahmed Omer took their two children, aged six months and two, with him when he fled back to Australia and abandoned his wife in September 2014.

After 16 months separated from her kids, the woman finally made her way back to Australia after securing a visa.

But her "nightmare continued" as Omer moved their children from place to place to avoid her.

"The journey to reunite with them became an agonising struggle," she said, in a statement read to Victoria's County Court today.

"When I tried to reunite, I faced false accusations, claims I was abusing him and the children, resulting in a police order banning me from seeing them."

Two months after her return to Australia, in April 2016, Omer took the children back to Sudan and left them there.

The distraught mother went to Sudan six months later to find her children, where she was confronted with even more legal hurdles.

"A sharia court stripped me of custody and prohibited me from seeing my children," she said.

"I was even in prison for three days."

She said the ordeal "irrevocably changed" the lives of her and her children, whom she now has full custody of.

"Losing my children was the most devastating period of my life," she said.

Omer, 52, became the first person in Victoria to be charged with exit-trafficking after he deceived his wife into travelling to Sudan and led her to believe she had a valid visa to return.

He had withdrawn his support for her visa and, after arriving in Sudan, he changed their tickets home.

Omer is facing up to 12 years behind bars after a jury found him guilty of the commonwealth offence in April.

His barrister told a pre-sentence hearing today that Omer's PTSD from growing up amid a civil war would make prison more difficult for him.

"It's accepted this is really a stain on an otherwise blameless life for Mr Omer," Brett Stevens told the court.

"He acknowledges the intentional deceit that caused the complainant to exit Australia, but that doesn't mean the jury accepted all of the victim's evidence."

He asked Judge Frank Gucciardo to hand Omer, who is currently in jail, a good behaviour bond with "some period to serve" in prison.

Prosecutor John Saunders said the Omer's "callous behaviour" needed to be properly punished.

"The youngest of the children was still being breastfed, these are particularly damaging acts in the context of a young family," he said.

The judge said Omer had fabricated much of his story to explain his conduct.

He shifted the blame to his wife during his police interview, claiming she had been neglecting their children and that he left Sudan with the kids because her family had threatened him, court documents reveal.

"He is simply dissembling, or at one end just fabricating stuff," Judge Gucciardo said.

Omer will be sentenced at a later date.
