Ahmed Alid, 45, denies murdering Terence Carney, 70, attempted murder and two counts of assaulting detectives after he was arrested.
A Moroccan accused of knifing a pensioner to death in the street apparently in “revenge” for the Israel-Palestine conflict was turned down for asylum in Germany, his housemate told investigators.
Mr Nouri, via a farsi interpreter, told police he had moved into the Home Office-approved accommodation around three months before the attack.Mr Nouri challenged him about why Alid came to the UK and not to a Muslim country if he did not like how people lived. Mr Nouri said he saw Alid had started to routinely carry a knife and was scaring the other housemates.
Housing bosses warned Alid he would lose his accommodation if his behaviour continued, Mr Nouri said. Mr Nouri said he saw Alid one night in the shared kitchen watching coverage of the Hamas attacks on his phone.
