An Oldham teenager who travelled to Sheffield to ambush and repeatedly stab a man outside a mosque has been jailed. Mohamed Shabaz has been locked up for 21 years for attempted murder.
The 19-year-old travelled from Greater Manchester in a stolen car. He then attacked the man from behind in a brutal assault.
Shabaz slashed the victim with a large kitchen knife before fleeing the scene leaving him for dead, the court heard. The man received life-threatening injuries and spent a number of weeks in hospital recovering from the assault.
