UK School Stabbing: 13-year-old Charged with Attempted Murder
12th February 2026
The teenager is accused of the attempted murder of two boys, aged 12 and 13. He is also charged with possession of a knife on school premises without good reason or lawful authority, and also accused of unlawfully and maliciously administering a noxious thing to a third child with a harmful, unidentified liquid. Reports say that the defendant shouted “Allahu Akbar”—or something similar—during the attack.
Probably just a coincidence. In the old days British schoolboys were drilled in Latin and Greek; nowadays they are drilled (if they are drilled at all) in Arabic and Urdu.
Local leaders, including the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, and Brent Council leader Muhammed Butt, expressed their shock over the incident. The mayor also urged anyone with information to contact the police, adding: “There is no honour in staying silent.”
