The N**i terrorist killer of Birmingham grandfather Mohammed Saleem, Pavlo Lapshyn, has been found dead in his jail cell.
On April 29, 2013 — just five days after arriving — Lapshyn stabbed 82-year-old Mohammed Saleem, a grandfather of 22 and a respected community member, to death in Small Heath, Birmingham.
Saleem had been walking home from evening prayers at his local mosque, using a walking stick due to poor health.
Lapshyn approached from behind and inflicted fatal stab wounds to the neck and chest.
The murder was described as a random, opportunistic act of racial hatred.
Between June and July 2013, Lapshyn planted and detonated three homemade bombs near mosques in the West Midlands:
June 21: Explosion outside the Wolverhampton Central Mosque (shortly after Friday prayers; no injuries due to timing).
July 12: Blast near the Ghausia Mosque in Walsall.
July 18: Device detonated close to the Bilal Mosque in Tipton.
The bombs were pipe devices filled with nails, screws, and explosives, designed to cause maximum casualties.
Police believe Lapshyn timed the attacks to coincide with prayer times but made errors in scheduling, averting mass harm.
He scouted locations using public transport and purchased materials online and from stores.
