Two butchers sentenced after Peterborough street knife attack
One victim almost had a part of his ear cut off
Two butchers have been sentenced after two men were attacked with knives in a Peterborough street.
On 16 September, Mohamed Moustafa, 27, and Adham Mustafa, 19, took knives from the butchers they worked at and attacked two people following a dispute.
The victims, aged 26 and 28, were trying to get back a phone that Moustafa had stolen.
Instead, they were attacked with knives outside Elfaseh Halal Meat, in Gladstone Street, Millfield.
One of the victims almost had a quarter of his ear cut off, whilst the other suffered a cut on his shoulder.
Moustafa, of Huntly Grove, Eastfield, Peterborough, admitted inflicting grievous bodily harm without intent and affray, and was found guilty of theft and threatening a person with a bladed article in a private place.
He has been jailed for three and a half years.
Mustafa, of Lincoln Road, Millfield, Peterborough, pleaded guilty to affray and was also found guilty of threatening a person with a bladed article in a private place.
He's been sentenced to 19 months in prison, suspended for 18 months.
He must also complete 120 hours of unpaid work and a 20-day rehabilitation activity requirement.
