Violent teenagers who used kitchen knives and screwdrivers to carry out a robbery at an East Ham casino were jailed for 25 years today.

Armed robber, Mohamed Sayid,  of Grantham Road, Manor Park, carried out nine robberies across East London between April and July last year, stealing a total of £27,700 alongside Ashley Samuel, 18, and Yahya Ahmed, 19, both from Ilford.

During one robbery at Cashino, High Street North, last May, Sayid repeatedly tried to stab a 28-year-old male employee with a sharpened screwdriver despite the victim complying with the group’s every demand.

The victim managed to block the attack but Sayid brutally punched him in the back of the head, resulting in severe swelling.

In his impact statement, the victim said: “During this robbery I feared for my life like I have never feared before. All I could see in front of my face was my baby boy’s face.

“He is only four months old and I am here to protect him and look after him throughout his life. I feared my life was about to end with me being stabbed to death during this robbery.

“The three suspects that committed this robbery got the key for the safe but continued attacking me and tried to stab me.

“They did not care about my life. This robbery has left me feeling a very nervous man and I am not sure if I will ever get over it.”

The robbers would hire out taxis to drive them to 24 hour gaming arcades across East London where they carried out the attacks in the early hours of the morning,

The teenagers would pay the drivers, who were oblivious to the crimes, to wait for them so they could be used as getaway vehicles.

They were arrested on July 17 after the Met’s Flying Squad intercepted them on their way back from robbing Cashino at Wood Green.

Officers stopped the car in Ilford and found money, clothing and weapons used during the robbery including a large “Rhino” brand kitchen knife measuring 25cm.

The robbers pleaded guilty to conspiracy to rob at Snaresbrook Crown Court and were each sentenced to eight years and four months’ imprisonment.

The investigating officer, DC Brad Weston of the Flying Squad, said: “These men were brutal and violent in their pursuit of money.

“One of the victims narrowly escaped being stabbed. It does not bear thinking about how this might have ended had they succeeded.

“Fortunately, none of the victims were seriously injured, although they have all suffered the mental and emotional after-effects of their horrendous experience.

“Many of the victims are suffering from flashbacks or depression and finding it very hard to return to any kind of normal life.”

Crime News item 2 :

Mother asked girl, 11, to ‘massage’ men

08:04 14 January 2015 Zoah Hedges-Stocks

An 11-year-old girl found sleeping rough in Newham has asked to live in a children’s home - because her mother asked her to ‘massage’ men, a family court judge has heard.


The little girl at the centre of proceedings was found sleeping rough and taken into temporary care by the borough of Newham.

Her mother brought her to the UK from Lithuania about eight months ago, Judge Carol Atkinson was told.

The judge said: “She was left home alone and generally neglected and she was asked to carry out inappropriate tasks such as ‘massage’ on men visiting her mother.”

Judge Atkinson said the youngster had not been enrolled at school or registered with a GP and had said she wanted to be in a children’s home.

The heartbreaking story came to light in a ruling in the east London family court, where it was decided that the little girl should be returned to Lithuania so that the local authorities could make decisions about her future.

The judge said the child’s mother had not “engaged” in the family court proceedings, and her father, who lives in Lithuania, had “no desire” to care for her.

You blocked akabula?
Aka, I know we've had our differences but could you send details of what's required by PM, please?

I can't even remember the thread but he stated something and I queried it. No name calling just civilised debate.
He replied but it didn't make any sense so I asked him to explain it. Maybe not verbatim but it was along these lines.
"Leopard I genuinely can't understand the relevance of your answer"
He immediately told me I was being blocked for being a troll.
3 other posters also queried the relevance of it and he blocked 2 of them. Laugh"

For the record, I am now OFFICIANY querying the relevance of the answer.

And that's another thing. Look at the Newham Recorder's headline (link or just read the OP):

They weren't jailed for 25 years: there were three robbers and they each drew 8 years and 4 months. It makes no sense to add them up. No wonder CMAT cracked under the strain of reading this drivel.

And from the pictures, casino now means "shop full of FOBTs" -- not a roulette wheel or blackjack table in sight.

Man who stabbed two men gets 11 years
26 November 2014

Omar Sultani custody image
A man who picked out and randomly stabbed two men sitting in their car has been jailed for 11 years.

Omar Sultani, 20 (31.08.1994) of Enderley Road, Harrow was found guilty of two counts of Grievous Bodily Harm with Intent on Tuesday, 18 November at Harrow Crown Court.

"This was a horrible and unprovoked attack on two men minding their own business"

He was sentenced to 11 years for the GBH with intent to the driver of the car (with three years extended licence) and six years for GBH with intent to the passenger.

Both sentences to run concurrently.

The court heard how on Monday, 12 May Omar Sultani attended Perivale car pound to collect his confiscated car. He was refused by staff at the car pound and left the premises.

A short distance away, Sultani approached the two victims as they sat talking in their car. Without warning Sultani produced a large 10" knife from the front of his trousers and began stabbing the first victim, the 20-year-old driver in the chest.

He then proceeded to attack and stab the second victim - a 25-year-old passenger - in the rear of the car. At this stage the first injured victim got out of his car and challenged Sultani, where upon he ran away from the scene. The attack was completely unprovoked and neither men were known to Sultani.

Despite the stab wounds to his chest, the driver managed to drive to a central London hospital and was treated for a punctured lung and damage to his liver. The second victim was treated for a stab wound to the leg and later discharged.

Officers from Ealing attended the car pound and were able to retrieve CCTV footage and the knife used in the attack. Officers also searched Sultani's home and retrieved clothing covered in blood. The recovery of these three bits of evidence helped officers build a substantial case against Sultani who was quickly found guilty due to the overwhelming evidence against him.

DC Talat Taj of Ealing CID said: "This was a horrible and unprovoked attack on two men minding their own business. The victims have scars and tissue damage to remind him of his unprovoked attack. Both victims have shown incredible bravery throughout this investigation. I would also like to pay tribute to the witnesses who assisted with this case."

"They weren't jailed for 25 years: there were three robbers and they each drew 8 years and 4 months".

Have to agree that the sentences were unduly lenient, this scum should have been dragged through the streets before being handed a 25 stretch apiece.

These incidents obviously occurr as the cases can be googled, and without doubt this area appears to have some evil transported from many nations.

Is manipulation of words really more abhorrant than the crime itself, or perhaps the most abhorrant of all, the non-reporting of the crime.

http://www.newhamrecorder.co.uk/news/crime-court/police_investigating_racially_aggravated_graffiti_sprayed_on_stratford_holocaust_memorial_day_posters_1_3918901
.

The words “liars” and “killers” were daubed in red paint on three posters advertising the council event - two in High Street, Stratford, and one in West Ham Lane, near Stratford Park.

The graffiti, which has since been removed, is being treated as racially aggravated criminal damage.

Police officers are checking the borough’s CCTV footage to try and identify the culprits and Newham Council will be monitoring all advertising boards in case of further offences.

Resident James Tattle, who reported one of the incidents to the council via Twitter and the Love Newham app, said he was “utterly repulsed and saddened” to spot a defaced poster.

He added: “I couldn’t believe that anyone would stoop so low as to scrawl that graffiti – not something I expect to see in London in 2015.”

Sir Robin Wales, Mayor of Newham, has condemned those responsible. “This despicable and cowardly hate crime is an assault on the values of decency and mutual respect which the vast majority of us share,” he said. “This outrage underlines not only the importance of keeping the memory of the Holocaust alive but of standing up to intolerance and hatred at every opportunity.

“Newham Council will work with our police partners to bring those responsible to justice.”

Anyone who has witnessed this crime is asked to contact police on the non-emergency number 101. This number can also be used to report a crime.

Newham Council’s Holocaust Memorial Day event will take place on January 27 in Stratford town hall from 9.30am to 12.30pm. The free event, which is open to the public, will include a first-hand account by a Holocaust survivor.
