Jordanian man admits brutal bottle and kettle attack after heavy drinking
A 29-year-old Jordanian man has admitted to a violent attack on his friend after a day of heavy drinking. Mustafa Al Mbaidin pleaded guilty to wounding Muhammed Al-Aseel with a bottle and a metal kettle, leaving him badly injured. The assault took place in January 2025, but it follows a string of previous offences against police officers.
The attack happened on January 24, 2025, after Al Mbaidin and Al-Aseel spent the day drinking Champagne. Using a bottle and a kettle as weapons, he inflicted a deep wound that caused severe bleeding. Two weeks later, he assaulted another man—PC Ian Leslie—pushing and spitting at the officer. For this, he received 250 hours of community service and a £50 fine.
Al Mbaidin's criminal record includes earlier convictions. In January 2024, he was found guilty of attacking two police officers. A year later, in July 2024, he received a 12-month conditional discharge for assaulting yet another officer. During his latest trial at Bournemouth Crown Court, he fled during a lunch break, violating his bail terms. A warrant was then issued for his arrest after he failed to return. His sentencing did not address his right to remain in the UK, and no public records confirm any Home Office action regarding his immigration status.
Al Mbaidin now faces further legal consequences after breaking bail and evading court. His repeated violent offences have led to multiple convictions, though no official steps against his UK residency have been documented. The case remains open as authorities seek to enforce the outstanding arrest warrant.
