Strangely, there is no mention in local news or a Greater Manchester Police force statement of the authorities treating the crimes of Rahman and his compatriots as racially aggravated which would attract tougher sentences despite his statements about the victims being white bastards.
Incredibly, Sajid, of Moss Cottage, Kings Road, Rochdale, was acquited of attempted murder. He was instead convicted of a section 18 wounding and handed an 18-year term although there is no indication that this was anything other than a standard determinate sentence, meaning he will almost certainly be automatically released at the halfway point, if not sooner.
Rahman himself was given a four-and-a-half-year term, while brother Zillur Rahma and mob member Arsan Ali each received four-year terms for conspiracy to commit violent disorder although again, it is standard practice in England that such terms are only served behind bars until their halfway point.
Apparently the media in The UK are just as dishonest as they are in the good old USA...
