A British banking executive was 'murdered by a drunk stranger in a random attack' after he was accused of stealing a phone in West London, a court heard today
Paul Mason, 52, former CEO at Qatar National Bank, had spent the evening at the Ivy in West London when he was confronted by Steven Allan.
Allan, who had been drinking, accused Mr Mason of stealing a mobile phone before attacking him and knocking him to the ground, the Old Bailey heard today. Mr Mason tried to get to his feet when he was punched with the blow being described by witnesses as making a "sickening crunch". His head hit the pavement, prompting doctors to carry out a procedure to replace part of his skull. Mr Mason died six months later on June 4, 2021.Picture: Handout
