Two Inmates Sentenced After CCTV Shows Them Smirking While Fatally Attacking Fellow Prisoner Till he Died
Disturbing footage has gone viral showing the moment a 19-year-old inmate, Ashirie Smith, smirked as he left his cell to brutally murder another prisoner inside HMP Leicester.
Smith was captured on CCTV stepping out of his cell shirtless, moments before launching a fatal attack on 31-year-old Mahir Abdulrahman. Smith stamped repeatedly on Abdulrahman’s head and neck inside his cell, leaving him with devastating injuries.
A female prison officer later found Abdulrahman unconscious and severely injured. He was rushed to the hospital, where he suffered a cardiac arrest at around 7:45 a.m. and tragically died an hour later.
A post-mortem examination revealed that Abdulrahman died from a subarachnoid basal hemorrhage—bleeding in a critical area of the brain.
The court heard that tensions between the inmates escalated after Abdulrahman, who had been subjected to ongoing taunts from Smith and another inmate, Thierry Robinson, retaliated by throwing hot water from a kettle at them.
The CCTV footage showed Robinson smirking in the corridor outside Smith’s cell just before the attack. After entering Abdulrahman’s cell, both Smith and Robinson calmly walked out 37 seconds later, leaving him fatally injured. Smith briefly re-entered the cell before exiting again, having carried out the deadly assault.
At Leicester Crown Court, Ashirie Smith was found guilty of murder and sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 17 and a half years. Thierry Robinson, 21, was found not guilty of murder but guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to 11 years in prison.
Detective Inspector Mark Parish of the East Midlands Special Operations Unit commented on the case, stating: “The injuries suffered by Mahir Abdulrahman showed a serious, sustained attack had taken place which ultimately led to his death.
“Thanks to the hard work of the investigation team, Smith and Robinson have been convicted in court and will now have to face responsibility for their actions”
What was meant to be a day of bonding turned into a devastating tr*gedy for a father and his son in Chhattisgarh, eastern India.
Suklal Darro, 45, and his 22-year-old son, Ajju Kureti, had ventured into the Kanker forest to gather firewood when they encountered a wild bear, believed to be infected with rabies.
A video circulating online captured the moment a forest guard, Narayan Yadav, courageously intervened to save the duo. Yadav could be heard shouting “Don’t run away!” as he tried to distract the bear.
Tragically, the bear turned on Yadav, launching a savage attack. The footage shows the animal pinning him to the ground, digging its massive paws into his chest and biting him viciously on the neck, face, and torso.
Though Yadav miraculously survived, he was left with severe injuries and is currently hospitalized in critical condition.
Sadly, Darro and Kureti did not survive the attack. Mr. Darro passed away en route to the hospital, while his son, Ajju, was pronounced dead at the scene.
Forest officials suspect the bear was suffering from rabies, which could explain the unusually aggressive behavior.
Tensions in the Middle East have escalated as Iran launched a retaliatory missile attack, firing 10 missiles at U.S. military bases located in Qatar and Iraq. The strikes come in response to actions and remarks made by Donald Trump.
One of the primary targets was the Al-Udeid Air Base, situated near Doha, Qatar — the largest U.S. military installation in the Middle East.
Following the attack, Bahrain — home to the U.S. Navy’s 5th Fleet headquarters — temporarily suspended flights in its airspace. This mirrored Qatar’s own precautionary airspace lockdown, which took place shortly before the missile strike.
In a statement, the Qatari government condemned the attack on Al-Udeid Air Base but confirmed that its defense systems successfully intercepted the incoming missiles. Authorities reported no casualties or injuries, and added that Qatar’s airspace has since been declared safe.
Former U.S. President Donald Trump has finally addressed the ongoing tension between him and tech billionaire Elon Musk, following a string of controversial posts by Musk on social media.
Speaking during an interview on the Pod Force One podcast, Trump said he has “no hard feelings” toward Musk but admitted he was “not a happy camper” after Musk’s former head of DOGE criticized his government spending bill.
Trump expressed disappointment at Elon musk because, as he put it, his so-called “big beautiful bill” is so phenomenal.
Interestingly, just hours before Trump’s interview aired, Elon Musk took to X (formerly Twitter) to issue a public apology, admitting that some of his previous posts about Trump may have gone too far.

I regret some of my posts about President @realDonaldTrump last week. They went too far.

According to Sarah’s parents, they were unaware of Yaron’s proposal plans until after the devastating news of their deaths. The couple, who both worked at the Israeli Embassy, were attacked outside the Capital Jewish Museum.
The U.S. Justice Department has since charged 31-year-old Elias Rodriguez with federal murder charges in connection with the double homicide. Eyewitnesses told CNN that Rodriguez waited for police to arrive and allegedly stated, “I did it for Gaza.”
Rodriguez did not enter a plea during his initial court appearance and will remain in custody pending further legal proceedings.
In the aftermath of the tragic shooting in Washington, D.C. that claimed the lives of Sarah Milgrim, 26, and her partner Yaron Lischinsky, Sarah’s father, Robert Milgrim said : “He was incredible
“He was very much like Sarah: passionate, extremely intelligent, dedicated to what he does, always on the cause of what’s right.”
Sarah’s parents also revealed that she had recently shared plans to visit Jerusalem with Yaron to meet his family for the first time.
Her mother had also made plans to travel to Washington from their home in Prairie Village, a suburb of Kansas City, to care for Sarah’s dog, a goldendoodle named Andy, just days before the fatal incident.
Robert Milgrim recounted the moment he learned something was terribly wrong. While preparing for bed on Wednesday night, a news alert about a deadly shooting outside an event for the American Jewish Committee caught his attention. Knowing that Sarah was a fellow of the organization, he immediately contacted both the FBI and the local police, but was initially unable to obtain any information.
According to her LinkedIn profile, Ms. Milgrim held A master’s degree in international studies from American University
A second master’s degree in natural resources and sustainable development from the United Nations University for Peace
A bachelor’s degree in environmental studies from the University of Kansas

Gospel singer Timilehin Ajayi, who is standing trial for the alleged murder of his 24-year-old girlfriend, Salome Adaidu, has been spotted in a viral video praying as he appeared in court.
Ajayi was arrested in January following the death of Salome, a National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) member who was serving at NICON Insurance in Abuja at the time. Reports say Salome had visited Ajayi at his residence in Karu, Nasarawa State—tragically, it was her last known location before her death.
The incident sparked national outrage, especially after Ajayi reportedly admitted during an interview that he had no regrets over the killing, claiming he did it because Salome had been unfaithful to him.

The statement reads: “Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms. On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone.
“While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive which allows for effective management.”

The body of 16-year-old Maja Kowalska has been discovered brutally mutilated in a bushy area near her hometown of Mława, in north-eastern Poland. Authorities have arrested a 17-year-old male suspect—believed to be her friend—in connection with the horrific crime.
Maja was last seen on April 23 after telling her mother she would return home in 30 minutes. When she failed to come back and couldn’t be reached, her worried parents reported her missing. A police search was launched, including combing through surrounding areas and forests.
On May 1, over a week later, Maja’s body was found in a wooded area. Reports indicate she had been tied up, beaten, and burned with a corrosive substance.
Investigators revealed that Maja had sent a concerning message to an unnamed friend around 8 p.m. on the night she disappeared, asking them to urgently get in touch. Shortly after, her phone went offline.
As the investigation unfolded, police discovered that Maja had met up with a 17-year-old male friend the day after she was last seen. Shockingly, it was later found that the boy had traveled to Greece following her disappearance. He has since been located and is being held in a juvenile detention center in Volos, Greece.
Maja’s father, Mr. Jacek Kowalski, spoke with local media, expressing heartbreak and demanding answers: “If she was suffering, I need to know it. I saw traces of burns.”
Maja had recently returned to Mława from Olsztyn, where she was living with her mother, to visit friends. The full circumstances surrounding her death are still under investigation.

The Trump administration has revoked all U.S. visas held by South Sudanese nationals, citing Sudan’s failure to cooperate with the repatriation of its citizens.
Secretary of State Marco Rubio made the announcement on Saturday, describing the decision as part of the administration’s broader effort to tighten immigration enforcement.
In a press release, Rubio stated: “Effective immediately, the United States Department of State is taking actions to revoke all visas held by South Sudanese passport holders and prevent further issuance to prevent entry into the United States by South Sudanese passport holder.
“Every country must accept the return of its citizens in a timely manner when another country, including the United States, seeks to remove them,”
He added: “Our efforts to engage diplomatically with the South Sudanese Government have been rebuffed.
“Effective immediately, all visa appointments are cancelled, no new visas will be issued, no existing visas will be effective, and hence NO ONE from South Sudan will be entering the United States on a visa until this matter is resolved,”
