(BBC) A man who set two worshippers on fire as they left mosques has been sentenced to an indefinite hospital order.
Mohammed Abbkr, who has schizophrenia, sprayed petrol before setting alight Hashi Odowa, 82, and Mohammed Rayaz, [70], in London and Birmingham.
Abbkr, of Gillott Road, Edgbaston, was found guilty of attempted murder on 6 November 2023.
At his sentencing, the judge said Abbkr believed people possessed by evil spirits controlled him.
The 29-year-old’s sentencing had been delayed after a Birmingham Crown Court judge ordered psychiatric reports.
