A migrant who st@bbed a man to de@th in the UK has been jailed for life, with a minimum term of 25 years.
Somalian national, Haybe Cabdiraxmaan Nur, 47, plunged a knife into the chest of father-of-three Gurvinder Singh Johal, 37 at a Lloyds Bank in Derby, before ‘calmly’ walking out of the branch. murd£r in August.
He pleaded guilty to the murd£r of Gurvinder Singh Johal, 37, at Derby Crown Court in August.
The Somali national st@bbed Mr Johal at random shortly after angrily complaining about his refused asylum application.
Mr Johal, who was known to friends as Danny, d!ed after being st@bbed inside Lloyds Bank in St Peter’s Street on 6 May this year. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
Nur, who paid just over £350 to travel to the UK last year, was jailed at Derby Crown Court on Wednesday.
He was caught on multiple CCTV cameras attacking Mr Johal with a kitchen knife.
Derby Crown Court heard how Nur had called charity Migrant Help less than two hours before the k!lling, saying he was “going to kill 500 people,” later suggesting he was going to target “doctors, police or people working at the Home Office”.
The 47-year-old had claimed asylum in October last year, shortly after arriving in the UK. His claim was rejected by the Home Office because he had arrived “voluntarily,” a decision he later appealed.
Jailing Nur for life on Wednesday, Judge Shaun Smith KC told the defendant the murd£r was a “brutal and callous act”.
He added: “It was a real-life horror film for everyone connected to Mr Johal and everyone who had the misfortune of witnessing your wicked act.”
James Horne KC, defending, said Nur was ‘in a state of flux and crisis’ at the time and struggling to cope with his alcohol dependency as well as the sense of injustice he felt about Britain’s asylum system.
A psychiatrist who assessed Nur was said to have concluded: ‘He resorted to the violent act as a terrible expression of his anger and hopelessness.’
