Are Most Killings In The UK Now Committed By Foreigners?

3rd February 2014

Unfortunately, but quite rightly, a thread about this subject had to be locked last week. Time has moved on but more evidence has emerged:

3rd Feb:

A Kosovan refugee accused of murdering his wife lied about witnessing Serbian atrocities to claim asylum and benefits in the UK, a court heard today (MON). Muhamet Hoti, 43, stabbed 42 year-old mother-of-three Ganimete Hoti to death at their home in north London after repeatedly accusing her of having affairs with other men. He now claims his responsibility for the killing is diminished because of post traumatic stress disorder as a result of the war. But prosecutor Zoe Johnson said Hoti had lied about his past and left Kosovo before fighting reached his village. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/#sthash.DVnuNxFO.dpuf


3rd Feb:

A personal trainer who stabbed his wife to death the day after being released on bail for domestic violence was jailed for at least ten years and eight months today (MON). Bulent Sessacar, 28, knifed trainee nursery-nurse Rebecca Sessacar a total of 58 times in a frenzied attack in front of a six year-old girl at their home in Croydon, south London. Sessacar, who was abusing steroids and cocaine, had a history of violence and a police caution for battery of his 25 year-old wife. Two days before the killing he was arrested for assaulting Rebecca but was allowed to return to the family home after she said she did not want to press charges. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/#sthash.DVnuNxFO.dpuf


2nd Feb:

The mother of a seven-week-old baby is due in court this morning charged with his murder and child neglect.

Katarzyna Maria Gacek, 24, of Hillside Avenue, Oldham, has been charged with the murder and child neglect of Thomas Gacek.

Please discuss.

we should just throw them out the country, they come as guest to our country, surely there is a condition of keeping our laws, if there isn't there should be.

I know how you feel about them being "guests" father, but they're not really guests if they are coming here to live permanently - they are supposed to be fully fledged citizens.

If that is so, surely our authorities at the border and police should be checking up on them beforehand and making sure we only take the best of the best in?

Minor criminals turn in to major ones, and as some have pointed out - if you are in the lowest paid section of society, you may turn to crime. Maybe if you are "desperate" you may turn to crime, so why let in the low paid workers - they will have to have top-ups and are the most likely to turn to crime - that just doesn't make sense.

I agree many countries such as America, Canada, Australia have very stringent rules on who they take but unfortunately due to the EU rules imposed on us we have to let almost anyone in, so if we could put a clause in that says break the law and we drop you in the channel, I think it would be a good idea.

First one of the day:

4th Feb:

A homeless man was battered to death in a bin shed occupied by a group of eastern European rough sleepers, a court heard today (MON). Alfred Stemporowski, 55, was repeatedly kicked and stamped on by fellow Pole Damin Walczyk in an unprovoked and drunken attack, it is claimed. When the other rough sleepers asked why Walczyk, 29, was hitting the victim, he replied that it was 'for the love of my country' - a Polish saying meaning 'for no particular reason'. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/#sthash.mtR9UtXf.dpuf

they weren't very friendly then and sleeping rough so a great addition to British culture, what we are really short of is drunken, violent layabouts...

One thing they are supporting in the UK is the widely-held theory that "most killings in the UK are committed by foreigners"

Sorry Andy you are talking utter psuedo babble, as all we have is select news items on murder, when a theories dependence is on empirical evidence and testable explanations.
Unless you are able to show over time periods say the last 10 years a trend for example with how many homicides are committed by foreigners, your theory is nothing more than Goobbledygook

If starting from the top is anything to go by, UK certainly is well ahead of the murder brigade.

Some more terrible news from yesterday - the foreign murders continued:

5th Feb:

A young businessman was stabbed to death on a busy street after a petty row with a complete stranger, a court heard today (WED). Taqui Khezihi, 21, was standing outside a Costcutter shop with his older brother when he was confronted by 20 year-old Janhelle Grant-Murray. During the heated argument with Mr Khezihi, Grant-Murray was heard to say down his phone: 'Bring the knives.' Seconds later Grant-Murray and three other men launched the fatal attack which lasted less than 50 seconds, jurors heard. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/#sthash.KTCi4z1i.dpuf

5th Feb:

A man accused of battering a prostitute to death collapsed in court today (Thurs) after learning he will stand trial at the Old Bailey. Robert Fraser, 39, entered the dock with his head and shoulders hanging low and was apparently unable to speak even to confirm his name. Fraser has been behaving in this way since his arrest, Westminster Magistrates' Court heard. 'The Crown invites the court to send these matters to the Central Criminal Court,' said Darren Watts, prosecuting. A thud could be heard as Fraser fell to the ground and the court was hastily cleared. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/#sthash.beAPHz7j.dpuf

A new day and a new killing by a foreigner:

Mohammed Liaqat Ali, 37, throttled Lilima Akter Munny, 27, at their rented home on June 13 last year.

Ali moved to the UK in 1998 from Bangladesh before returning home to wed Lilima in 2004 in an arranged marriage.

'It was a violent attack against an innocent woman in her home that has left her family completely devastated by what happened.

'Lilima has left behind her two young daughters whose lives will never be the same following this terrible crime.

I'll add this one - will update it once the killer is revealed.

May of course have to ask for it to be deleted if it turns out to be a Brit killer.

8th Feb:

A driver has died after he was stabbed before climbing into his car and crashing into a London bus during rush hour yesterday.


The victim has today been named as 22-year-old Femi Junaid, from Peckham, South London.


Police said Mr Junaid died in hospital last night following the crash near Stockwell underground station shortly before 5.45pm.

The Met's homicide and major crime command has launched a murder investigation and says Mr Junaid's death could be linked to an argument on a bus nearby.


A spokesman said: 'Detectives believe Femi was stabbed in Clapham Road, some 50 yards from the scene of the collision, before getting into his car and colliding with the bus.

Two brothers accused of killing the cousin of a former Strictly Come Dancing star who drowned in the Thames four years ago denied manslaughter today (tues). The body of Ibrahim Gharib, 21, was pulled from the Shadwell Basin, near Garnet Street, east London, in March 2010. Mr Gharib's actress cousin Laila Rouass, 42, who starred in Strictly Come Dancing, Footballers' Wives and Primeval, said at the time that her family were 'devastated'.

Such a shame my other thread was locked. Whilst not completely comprehensive, it is an enlightening insight in to the world of foreign killings in Britain that I am giving to some people.

13th Feb:

Two brothers who murdered a businessman 'to teach him a lesson' after a petty dispute were both jailed for at least 25 years today (Thurs). Construction workers Dan and Ciprian Cozma tracked down Edward Fustei, 33, and knifed him four times in the neck, chest, and arms in a 'ferocious' revenge attack. Dan Cozma, 31, had drunkenly branded the victim a 'loser' at a house party, sparking a chain of violence that led to Mr Fustei's death. Cozma was left battered and bloodied in a brawl with Mr Fustea, and enlisted his younger brother, 25, to murder the businessman later the same evening. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/#sthash.kFKWFK7L.dpuf

Valentine's Day:

A couple who allowed a friend to sleep on their sofa woke up to discover he had savagely murdered a four-year-old boy, a court heard yesterday.


Psychopath Anwar Daniel Rosser, who the couple thought was a harmless neighbour, had asked to sleep on the sofa after turning up at their house after a night out.


In the early hours, the 33-year-old sneaked upstairs armed with four knives and stabbed Riley Turner to death.


He then crept into another bedroom where the boy’s mother and her partner were sleeping and curled up to sleep on the floor.


The next morning mother-of-three Sharon Smith, 26, was shocked to find Rosser curled up in a ball on the floor next to her, and ordered him to leave.


Moments later her partner, Guy Earwaker, noticed Riley’s light on and went to check his room – only to find it covered in blood and the boy semi-naked and dead on the bed with his throat cut.


Riley had been strangled, repeatedly stabbed and attacked in a sexual manner. Chillingly, Rosser had waited downstairs to hear the anguished screams. He escaped, but was arrested later by police.

Valentine's Day:

The mother of a teenage soldier stabbed to death in Cyprus broke down in tears at an inquest as two of his killer’s friends refused to answer key questions over her son’s death.

Fusilier David Collins, 18, was stabbed in the heart with a flick knife as he tried to settle a nightclub dispute in the party resort of Ayia Napa, Cyprus.


He died without knowing his young girlfriend Aimee Williams was pregnant with his second child.

The 17-year-old delivered a healthy girl five months after his death.


David’s killer Mohamed Abdulkadir Osman, 20, originally from Somalia, but living in London, was jailed for eight years in Cyprus for manslaughter after claiming he was 'provoked' and ‘lost self-control’.

Two of Osman’s friends Umar Anwar and Tukki Abbas Shah, both 18 were initially arrested in connection with the killing but were later freed - even though 11 flick knives and two knuckle dusters were found in the hotel room they were all were sharing.

During an inquest in Stockport, Greater Manchester, on Thursday Lisa Minot, 38, was reduced to tears as the two men refused to answer questions and maintained her son had started an argument by asking the three men 'are you bad men?’

Armed police officer's were deployed outside Stockport Coroner's Court for this inquest - what the hell have they allowed in to our country?????

17th Feb:

CCTV images have been released of two men police want to trace in connection with the murder of a 24-year-old who had learning difficulties.

Dean Mayley was stabbed in the heart as he walked through Greenford, west London, on February 7.

He had a condition that meant he had a mental age of around nine.

Scotland Yard has released CCTV images of two men they want to speak to in connection with his death.

They had previously released stills from footage of Mr Mayley's final bus journey in an attempt to find his killers.

Two teenagers, both aged 17, have already been charged with murder. They are also charged with conspiracy to rob and possession of an offensive weapon.

A youth court remanded the pair in custody ahead of a bail hearing at the Old Bailey on Wednesday.

Ok, so, from my previous thread on this subject, we are carrying 8 killings over from between 24th Jan - 28th Jan.

We then started this count on the 2nd Feb by the look of things.

Let's see if the foreigners can hit the 500 mark by Christmas.

I've got my fingers crossed in the hope they don't.

18th Feb:

A third man accused of shooting dead a nursery teacher celebrating her 24th birthday in a hail of bullets appeared in court today (tues). Yassin James, 19, appeared via videolink at the Old Bailey charged with murdering Sabrina Moss in Kilburn, northwest London. The teenager is the third defendant charged with the murder, along with Martell Warren, 22, and Hassan Hussain, 29. Miss Moss, who worked at Alice's Wonderland nursery in Stonebridge and had a four-year-old son, suffered a gunshot wound to the chest in the deadly attack. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/?page=1#sthash.jwgXRQMz.dpuf

18th Feb:

A failed asylum seeker stabbed his wife to death after she threatened a divorce which would damage his chances of staying in the UK, a court heard (TUES). Farhad Safi, 22, had applied for a residence card after marrying his 21 year-old Polish college girlfriend Orina Morawiec. But the relationship quickly deteriorated because of his possessive and controlling behaviour, it is claimed. Safi became angry if his wife wore make-up or went out to see her friends and one threatened to kill her if she left the house, jurors were told. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/?page=1#sthash.jwgXRQMz.dpuf

The victim suffered head injuries and a stab wound to her chest. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/?page=1#sthash.jwgXRQMz.dpuf

18th Feb:

Again, no confirmation, but we'll just put it in here anyway - you all know it makes sense!

Scotland Yard made history today after it charged three youths with murder before their alleged victim had died.


Two 14-year-olds and a 16-year-old, who cannot be named for legal reasons, will appear in court later accused of stabbing to death Rashid Naeem, the Met Police said.

Detectives decided to charge the teenagers while the market stall holder was still in hospital, because doctors said his injuries were fatal and he was going to die.



The 29-year-old of East Ham, east London, was stabbed two days ago at a street market in Upton Park, also in east London.

Aaron de Silva was 19 when he repeatedly knifed Joe Griffiths, 73, during a break-in at the pensioner's six-storey home in Fulham, southwest London. Mr Griffiths confronted the armed intruder when he went to investigate a noise in the middle of the night. The pensioner's wife Judith, 72, who was recovering from a hip operation, woke to hear shouts and screams, and found her dying husband lying in a pool of blood in the hallway. - See more at: http://www.courtnewsuk.co.uk/newsgallery/#sthash.JM0Q9Bkb.dpuf

This is what is going on in the UK , what a shame Thick Yanks don't understand it.

Again, nice one Ben, but this isn't a victimless joke:





An asylum seeker who ran over a girl of 12 and left her to die has won his appeal to stay in the UK after arguing for his right to a family life.


Aso Mohammed Ibrahim, 32, was banned from driving and awaiting deportation when he ran away with Amy Houston trapped under the wheels of his car.


But the Iraqi Kurd, who was jailed for four months, used the European Human Rights Act to avoid being sent home because he has since had two children here.

21st Feb:

Thank god he came here - our old and infirm wouldn't have a pension without the b4st4rd, right?

A man who admitted stabbing his boss 51 times before going on a "rampage" with a machete has been jailed for life.

Father-of-three Parvaiz Iqbal, 40, was killed at his shop on Grosvenor Road in Eastwood, Rotherham, on 15 October.

At Sheffield Crown Court Naeem Mehmood, who admitted murder, was ordered to serve a minimum jail term of 27 years.

The 27-year-old ran through Rotherham smashing car windows and threatening people with a machete after the attack, before being stopped by police.

Mehmood, of Herringthorpe Valley Road, Rotherham, also admitted causing grievous bodily harm with intent to his co-worker Saeed Hussain, who was stabbed in the stomach when he tried to help his boss.


Sheffield Crown Court heard Mr Iqbal was found at Bismillah Food Store with a 7in (18cm) knife stuck almost up to the hilt in his chest.

Mehmood came to Britain from Pakistan in May 2011 and got a job at the shop in June 2013, the court heard.

I'm afraid I must report more very sad cases of cold-blooded killings.

21st Feb:

A conman who plotted what he believed would be "the perfect murder" by killing his former school friend, throwing his body into a lake and stealing his identity to claim £320,000 in life insurance has been jailed for life.

Jagdev Singh Rai lured Jasbir Singh Bains to a West Bromwich park in the middle of the night, where he cut his throat and flung his body into the water.

Wolverhampton Crown Court heard the killer, also known as Jamie Rai, planned to execute the 41-year-old victim he had known since childhood, after stealing his identity for his own financial gain.
