A migrant from Afghanistan who stabbed a man to death in central London lost control because he is a 'traumatised refugee', a court heard.
Oh, bless…
Farmanullah Sherzad, 26, was found with multiple knife wounds in Abbey Orchard Street in Westminster on March 27 this year before being pronounced dead in hospital. Today, Sulaiman Tajzai, 18, denied murder and knife possession in a public place.
Sums up modern Britain - invader killing invader, defended by invader, of course:
Tajzai appeared at the Old Bailey via videolink from HMP Belmarsh wearing a white T-shirt and spoke only to confirm his name, aided by a Pashto language interpreter. Defending Tajzai, Haroon Khattak said: 'A psychiatrist's report was obtained to deal with whether he is fit to plead.'
And so the majesty of the Great British justice system was set in motion:
The judge said: 'Firstly, any psychiatric or psychology reports relied upon by the defence have to be served no later than July 21 on the prosecution and the court.
'By the same date, July 21, the full post-mortem report and the download relied upon by the prosecution must be served.
'There will be a further case management hearing on July 24 - this is not a direction, more of an indication for the prosecution, because there is a degree of uncertainty about the date now.
'If the trial date stands on September 2, then trial documents should be served by August 14.'
All that work and taxpayer money going into resolving this, followed by another reminder someone up their is laughing at us all…
At this point one of the court's desks suddenly collapsed, making a loud bang that startled the usher, who frantically tried to piece it back together. Judge Dennis added: 'I think that brings to an end the hearing, the court is falling to pieces!'
Yes it is, your honour, and the bloody furniture is the least part of it!
