A man who stabbed a Met police officer in the chest has been jailed.

Mohin Hussain, 41, of Ashmore Road, W9, appeared at Southwark Crown Court on Friday, 29 January. 

He was sentenced to two years’ imprisonment for Section 20 wounding and six months imprisonment for having a bladed article. The sentences will be served consecutively.

The court heard how at 23:49hrs on Tuesday, 28 July, officers were conducting mobile patrols at Shirland Road, W9 when Hussain was observed with his hand in a satchel that he was wearing across his body.

From inside the vehicle, officers engaged in conversation with Hussain, throughout which Hussain continued to have his hand inside the pouch. 

Due to the answers being provided to the questions, and Hussain’s odd behaviour, one of the officers, opened the door to initiate a search.

As he did so, Hussain pushed the car door against him and at this point removed his hand from the bag and punched the officer in the upper right of his chest before fleeing the scene.

Following a short foot chase, he was detained when officers red-dotted him with a taser. Officers did not fire the taser.

At this point, the officer, aged in his 30’s, who was punched, realised that Hussain had stabbed him with a Stanley knife.

The officer was taken to hospital by London Ambulance Service for treatment to a stab wound that was assessed as non-life-threatening.

Hussain was arrested at the scene and taken to a west London police station where, in an interview, he answered ‘no comment’ to all questions put to him.

Detective Constable Nigel Pacquette, investigating, said: 

“Officers often deal with incidents that most people would run from, and even though they wear protective equipment, they still risk serious injury.

“They place their own safety behind that of the communities they protect, but when their duty is over, they must be able to return home, to their own families, without having suffered injury.”

    15 months will be served. That’s a blooming insult to the victim. Maybe he should have stabbed the judge. Bet he would get more then.

    Whatever happened to “Put your hands where I can see them?” when approaching a suspect?

    Surely this pathetic sentence should be challenged as far too leinient, if he had stolen money from the officer he would have gotten a longer term of imprisonment… How exactly does this “legal eagle” expect the Police to uphold the law without protection from scum like this? And can someone please tell me why Police go out every day to protect me, when we, as a society permit this type of joke sentence? WHY IS THE POLICE UNION NOT GOING CRAZY ABOUT THIS???

    Two years for stabbing someone. Seriously? 6 months for carrying a blade? Seriously? At least they were consecutive sentences, which is something.

    First of all, is this guy a British citizen? If he is, he should be locked up for a very long time indeed – decades, not years. If he is not, he should be interned pending permanent deportation. I would not bother locking him up as a punishment. Intern and remove him, thus solving the problem and sending a strong message to anybody else as to what will happen to them if they behave like this.

    This was premeditated, how is that sentence a deterrent or a punishment ? Total disrespect for the Police and the general public. Kid gloves !

    He should have got a lot longer sentence as a deterrent for others. The judge and the system need to look at sentencing a make them all a lot longer, especially if someone attacks the Emergency Services, and I mean any of the Emergency Services and their assistants.
