UK: Son hacked mother to death with machete ‘over inheritance row’
7th April 2011
Doesn’t sound like the sort of thing you’d expect in Britain, does it?
Usman Shahzad, 21, and a 16-year-old boy launched a “remorseless, merciless” attack on businesswoman Assia Shahzad at her home after a furious row over her love life.
The pair allegedly rained down blows on the 40-year-old with knives and a shower pole, causing 84 separate injuries, while playing rap music at high volume to muffle her screams.
Prosecuting, Ben Gumpert said: “There had been bad feeling between Assia Shahzad and Usman Shahzad that may have been caused by the fact Assia Shahzad had found a new husband in Pakistan.
But in Londonistan, who knows?
