Murder of Mushin Ahmed

On 10 August 2015, 81-year-old grandfather Mushin Ahmed was racially abused and attacked in Rotherham by 30-year-olds Dale Jones and Damien Hunt.

After racially abusing an Asian taxi driver,[1] at 3:20 am, they encountered Ahmed on Doncaster Road, where he was dressed in traditional clothing to attend morning prayers.

Ahmed died eleven days later from facial and eye socket fractures, and brain damage.

[1] The print of Jones' Adidas trainers matched an injury on Ahmed's face, while Hunt's DNA was found on his broken dentures.

CCTV footage proved that both men were in the vicinity at the murder, and each suspect blamed the other wholly for the attack.
