A 62-year-old man whose dog launched a "horrific" attack on an 11-year-old girl and two men who helped her has walked free from court. Farhat Ajaz, whose dog is believed to have been an XL bully, was handed a two-year suspended prison sentence after he also admitted threatening to kill a former partner.
Yes Reader, it's this incident, finally coming to an unsatisfactory conclusion after over a year...
CCTV from a shop that was played in court showed the dog, named Tyson, snapping its collar and attacking the 11-year-old in Bordesley Green, Birmingham, on 9 September last year. The victim, who cannot be named because of her age, was left with scarring on her arm and shoulder. Further footage filmed by bus passengers showed subsequent attacks on Numaan Ahmed and Yousef Ahmadzai, who helped the girl but were injured on a nearby petrol station forecourt, with one of them fearing he would die.
The video was horrific, and undoubtedly contributed to the government implimenting a ban on these dogs.
Birmingham Crown Court heard Ajaz was subject to a life-long licence at the time of the offences, having been jailed in 1979 and serving 25 years before his release in 2004. No details about this offence were given to the court.
Well, it must have been serious to do that length of bird, even though back in 1979 we weren't afflicted with a woke 'justice' system....
Passing sentence on Ajaz, Judge Heidi Kubik KC said the harassment, relating to a series of incidents in February and March 2022, involved "vile, threatening and abusive" behaviour which on its own merited a custodial sentence.The judge told him: "I make it perfectly plain that were you a younger man in good health, you would be going immediately to prison today.
"Bearing in mind your guilty pleas and the health conditions that you now suffer, I take the view that it would not be in the interests of justice to send you to immediate custody today."
Ask any man in the street, Heidi, and I think you'd find they would have a rather different view of 'the interests of justice'....

1. Going by the dog owner's name, unless he was an apostate, dogs are supposed to be haram, so why did he have one?
2. Bring in Clarkson's Law.
3. If the dog owner is in such poor health, no reason why No2 can't be applied.
Penseivat
? He is the same age as me, I was 16 in 1979, what did he do as a minor to get 25 years??
Why did he have one? The same reason they have them back in his home country, despite the prohibition.
It would be nice to know, wouldn't it?
