Two men sentenced for carrying sword and metal pole in Oxford

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 21 Oct, 06:08 · Archive

Two men were sentenced after brandishing a sword and metal pole during fights between groups in Oxford.

Samyan Khdir, 21, of Poplar High Street, London, and Eyub Hussani, 26, of Warley Avenue, Dagenham, were sentenced after brandishing a sword and metal pole in Rectory Road on 13 September last year. The weapons offences occurred during violent altercations between groups of men in Oxford. Prosecutor Julian Lynch told the court there was 'a high risk of serious disorder'.

Armanto Tzourtzi, 24, of no fixed abode, was also sentenced on a charge of affray for his involvement in a fight outside Hank's Bar in Queen Street in the early hours of 13 September, which targeted Alan Mohammadi. His legal representative, Richard Moss, said Tzourtzi had no previous convictions and acted after witnessing another man, Mr Mohammadi, kicking Mr Ndoj.

The sentencings were delayed after all three men were due to appear on 16 October but could not do so due to lack of an interpreter and Tzourtzi failing to attend. Around the same time as these incidents, Romario Qatja was approached by gangs of Kurdish men in St Clement's. He drove his car into Rabar Pirot, causing serious injuries. Qatja was acquitted of attempted murder but found guilty of causing serious injury by dangerous driving, receiving a two and a half year sentence on 16 October, deemed already served through time on remand.
