A businessman who was jailed for permanently injuring an intruder who attacked him and his family has been freed by the Court of Appeal.

Munir Hussain 53, was sentenced to 30 months for grievous bodily harm with intent after he hit Walid Salem with a cricket bat on 3 September 2008.

Hussain and his family had been tied up by three intruders at their home in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire.

BBC News - Jailed businessman Munir Hussain freed by court

Shockingly the court got it right for once.
Well done Munir, my thoughts are with his family who must have gone through hell whilst he was in jail.

agreed, the petty excuse to charge him "The burglary was over and the burglars had gone. No one was in any further danger from them." is just plain BS, the man had attacked his family, and in Mr. Hussains opinion deserved brain damage
 
Unfortunately so called British Justice only went part way.
True they released him from Prison subject to his good behavour for some time forward, they did not however release his brother merely reduced that gentleman's prison sentence.

Breaking into 3 pieces and only causing permanent brain damage. It must have been a cheap import, also if you do not knock the bat in properly they do tend to fracture.

I would suggest that when the other brother is released from prison, he invests in a Dennis Lillee aluminum bat, I have a feeling he may need pads and a groin protector as well, for when the relatives and friends of the brain damaged human, call around for an impromptu knock up.

This is actually excellent work for them seeing they are not in jail for life.

God I love EY. (Election year)
Common sense floods back to the justice system.

And I do hope the brother is released as well.

He asked for it, maybe he should have thought twice before he broke the law and tied up and threatened another persons family.
 
so once again a jury found him guilty and they were wrong, he did have a barrister to defend him?

I presume the barrister then entered a plea to mitigate the sentence?

I presume he appealed against sentence not guilt (that in itself is an admission) and it was reduced to 24 month
 
That's it. They both remain convicted criminals who committed a violent assault causing actual bodily harm. They were just let off lightly as it's election year.

To what is clearly a minority they are a 'criminal'.

To me the only thing they did wrong was not finish the job on the low life :shrug:

50 previous convictions/arrests. I think he got off lightly and ought to be damn grateful.

no kidding, do you think a criminal factors that fact into his facting diary:lol:
 
I remember this case. The court screwed up by letting him out. Oh well, he'd better learn to look over his shoulder. I'd hate to be in his shoes if the family and friends of the guy he assaulted ever decide to pay him a visit ;)

if someone tied up and threatened the safety of my family, i wouldn't stop at brain damage.

they tied up the mans children, i think he had every right to get somewhat pissed off and break a cricket bat over the other mans skull

1. Deserves a medal and a pat on the back

2. No but if they break the law and enter another persons property. As far as I am concerned, they leave their "rights" at the door.

It's the Left Wing attitudes of some of the above posters which show the schitzophrenia of Red politics.

The same kind of PC opinion which called for Tony Martin to be burned at the proverbial stake; yet a disproportionate sympathy for the criminals involved ensured that Leftist opinion let them off a tongue-lashing virtually unscathed.

Why is it so many lefties reckon Hussain will have to 'look over his shoulder' in case some criminal vermin attack him for his heroism, when this same breed of 'people' then moan on about vigilantes and the 'evil' of Sarah's Law?

What should Hussain have done when his family was terrorised? 'Stand and shout for help', as the boss of Norfolk Police said for Martin at the time?

This libertarian suggested that; and he isn't a hero. The SOB and his brother brutally beat a subdued suspect who no longer posed a threat. That's taking the law into your own hands.

After subduing the suspect, the brothers should've called the cops. How difficult is that concept?
 
British justice being what it is, I suspect Hussain reckoned that British penal system would be too weak to rehabilitate a hardened beast like that. And he would have a point.

He was a bit heavy with his hands, but I've not heard a tenth of the Leftist howling being directed at the likes of the kind of scum who slash people up down back alleys, just for the sake of a wallet and a mobile phone.

When have people from the Left accused the likes of, say, Fred Barras of being a SOB? Or the bloke who got his come-uppance from Hussain? Why do the avengers get all the vitriol and the deserving avenged get the sympathy?

Hmm, radio silence from the Red Brigade! Let's see if we can make it easier for them by having this little

LEFT WING PILLOCKS' COUNTER-HATRED CHALLENGE!!

For the sake of argument, let us say for now that Manir Hussain is indeed a piece of violent, volatile filth who deserves to rot in jail for his brutal behaviour. Behaviour, yes, which the anti-normal people PC lunatics widely condemn with each frenzied pulsation of their dogma-corroded minds.

So, let us see if they can continue their barrage of hatred firing at the truly hateable as we take a look at violent and highly dangerous MARK SHIRLEY:


Murderer Mark Shirley sentenced for rape, victim Helen Stockford | Bristol News

Or how about this prime example of gallows material, ripe for loud condemnation: http://news.onlinenigeria.com/templates/?a=13609&z=12

Let's hear... the silence? Is it only ordinary members of the public fit for verbal execution? Prove me wrong! And if I'm wrong, let's extend the challenge to all the other villains, killers and ASBO menaces blighting the nation! It isn't hard.

Republic of Pubic, I have a fragrant life outside this place, and I live in the UK, so time zones comes into play, but I also do not find it a compulsory need to respond to every whack job here,now what was the question again:lol:
 
Not so much a whackjob, more somebody who's sick and tired of PC mindsets and willing to mock them.

The question again: Why do Lefties make less noise attacking the real criminals? It's all social workers begging for clemency, mandatory early release (with even more time slashed from that), lavish 'rehab' programmes and Billy Bragg distributing accustic guitars for them, but all the likes of Hussain get are insults and wishes that he was still where he was.

Even Maylene Klass was lectured to by officious jobsworths for scaring off some louts, though it wasn't official.

I always think that the blowhards who spout this type of puerile rhetoric are the same sad people who indulge in road rage.
