A man who stabbed a passenger in an unprovoked attack at Dublin Airport was acting out in a cry for help, a court has been told.
Dublin Circuit Criminal Court heard today that Kasonga Mbuyi (52) stabbed a German man in an unprovoked attack. He was seen behaving erratically before the attack and wasn’t wearing shoes.
Mbuyi, with an address at Clare Street, Limerick, was suffering from a paranoid delusion at the time and has since been diagnosed with schizophrenia with previous cannabis misuse. He told gardai (police) he carried out the unprovoked and random assault as a cry for help. […]
Detective Garda Cathal Connolly told Miranda Egan-Langley BL, prosecuting, that a German man was standing outside the Terminal One building at the airport when Mbuyi approached him.
Mbuyi looked at him and said: “I’m going to kill you”, before stabbing him repeatedly with a penknife. […]
Mbuyi accepted responsibility for the attack, and told gardai it was a cry for help. He said he'd recently been made homeless and was living a hostel after his privately rented accommodation in Limerick had been sold. He said he felt sad and that no one would help or listen to him. Mbuyi said he didn’t know the victim, felt sorry for him and was “trying to do a crazy thing to get help”. …

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Just for the record, Mbuyi was aiming for the neck of his victim. That echoes Surah 47:4 of the Koran: “So when you meet the disbelievers in battle, strike their necks until you have thoroughly subdued them, then bind them firmly.”
Couldn’t he have written a letter, or something instead?
If he gets off lightly, everyone will use that excuse — “it was a cry for help.”
Kasonga Mbuyi ? Doesn’t sound Germanic.
Poor baby, 52 years old and stabs someone as a cry for help. Should be locked up either in prison or in a mental institution for life, but no he’ll be released in a week or two. Special rights for illegals.
Certainly doesn’t sound Irish.
He’s from Angola.
Is this the Kasonga Mbuyi from County Kerry? County Kildare? Maybe County Donegal.
I wonder how far back his Irish ancestors go.
He’s living in Limerick, the story goes.
Do they have Amish in Ireland?
Kasonga Mbuyi ? Doesn’t sound Germanic.
But I'm sure that he's a fellow-traveler attached to the IRA ...
Kill him. That's the help he needs.
"You went a lot haywire, if you ask me!"
Cry for help = wants more handouts and money for dope. Unless Ireland needs a non-productive, mentally ill, violent sponger, deport him to his African country of origin.
Well, the victim is German, so if he has distant relatives in Switzerland, he might have distant Amish heritage.
Limerick huh?
There was a young sailor named Bates
Who danced the Fandango on skates;
He fell on his cutlass
Which rendered him nutless
And practically useless on dates.
by Henry Gibson
He should be composted. Human waste.
Kasonga Mbuyi
Not an Irish man.
