Attacker who stabbed man in neck and stomach before hiding in takeaway toilet jailed

Описание: A man who stabbed his victim who was sat defenceless in the back of a car has been jailed.
Abdul Ali, 20, was sat in the front seat of a car which was parked on Salisbury Road, Cardiff, at 11.30pm on February 25, 2025.
When his victim got in the back of the car, Ali got out of the vehicle and ran around the back of the car to open the driver-side passenger door.
He opened the door and lunged at his victim, stabbing his sneck and stomach.
The victim, 34, managed to get out of the car before another passenger restrained Ali.
A scuffle between a number of men followed and shortly after and Ali ran from the scene into a nearby fast-food restaurant before locking himself in a toilet inside the premises where he was arrested shortly after.
The attack was captured on CCTV which was used by detectives to identify Ali as the attacker.
The victim suffered serious injuries which required urgent surgery.
Abdul Ali, of Salisbury Road, was charged with Section 18 wounding with intent but he pleaded not guilty.
He was found guilty following a trial and on Monday, September 21, he was jailed at Cardiff Crown Court for ten years.
Detective Constable Anthony Hurley, said: “Tackling knife crime is a priority for the police and our partners.
“This was a vicious attack which could very easily have killed his victim – had it not been for the brave interventions of a man known to both men this could have been a lot worse.
“This is a level of violence which can never be normalised in the capital city and anyone caught carrying or using a knife can expect to spend a long time in prison.”



Carcharu ymosodwr a drywanodd dyn yn ei wddf a'i stumog cyn cuddio mewn toiled mewn bwyty cludfwyd

Mae dyn a drywanodd ei ddioddefwr a oedd yn eistedd yn ddiamddiffyn yng nghefn car wedi cael ei garcharu.
Roedd Abdul Ali, 20 oed, yn eistedd yn y sedd flaen mewn car a oedd wedi parcio ar Sailsbury Road, Caerdydd, am 11.30pm ar 25 Chwefror 2025.
Pan eisteddodd ei ddioddefwr yng nghefn y car, aeth Ali allan o'r cerbyd a rhedodd o gwmpas cefn y car i agor drws y teithiwr ar ochr y gyrrwr.
Agorodd y drws a rhuthrodd at ei ddioddefwr, gan drywanu ei wddf a'i stumog.
Llwyddodd y dioddefwr, 34 oed, i fynd allan o'r car cyn i deithiwr arall atal Ali.
Dechreuodd nifer o ddynion ymladd ac yn fuan wedyn rhedodd Ali o'r lleoliad i mewn i fwyty bwyd cyflym gerllaw cyn cloi ei hun mewn toiled ar y safle lle cafodd ei arestio yn fuan wedi hynny.
Cafodd yr ymosodiad ei ddal ar CCTV a defnyddiodd ditectifs y cynnwys i adnabod Ali fel yr ymosodwr.
Gwnaeth y dioddefwr ddioddef anafiadau difrifol yr oedd angen llawdriniaeth frys i'w trin.
Cafodd Abdul Ali, o Sailsbury Road, ei gyhuddo o Adran 18 clwyfo'n fwriadol ond plediodd yn ddieuog.
Fe'i cafwyd yn euog ar ôl achos llys a dydd Llun, 21 Medi, cafodd ei garcharu am ddeng mlynedd yn Llys y Goron Caerdydd.
Dywedodd y Ditectif Gwnstabl Anthony Hurley: "Mae mynd i'r afael â throseddau cyllyll yn flaenoriaeth i'r heddlu a'n partneriaid.
"Roedd hwn yn ymosodiad creulon a allai fod wedi lladd ei ddioddefwr – heb ymyriadau dewr gan ddyn roedd y ddau ddyn yn ei adnabod gallai hyn fod wedi bod yn llawer gwaeth.
"Ni ellir byth normaleiddio'r lefel hon o drosedd yn y brifddinas a gall unrhyw un sy'n cael ei ddal yn cario neu'n defnyddio cyllell ddisgwyl treulio amser hir yn y carchar."
