Teen stabbed pal in machete attack after his mum flushed drugs down the toilet

A thug carried out a vicious machete attack on a schoolfriend over a drugs debt - then boasted on Instagram he was 'armed and dangerous' as he tried to flee the law.

The attack happened after Ali jumped out of a car and carried out the attack on his 16-year-old victim in Rochdale on June 14. CCTV footage played in court showed Ali chasing his victim across Sheriff Street, slashing him across the shoulder with the weapon. The teenager was 'very angry and upset' at his mother's intervention and, the court was told, he shouted to his mother: "I'm going to get chopped up. I'm in deep s**t. I can't get out of this. You don't know what will happen to me. We need to give them back. I don't know how I'm going to get out of this.

After the boy had identified his attacker to police, officers uncovered an Instagram post by Ali that day which read: "They f***ed me. Raise alert. Armed and dangerous." He was left with 'significant restriction' in movement of his arm but doctors hoped he would recover and would lose only some 'motor skills' in his hand, the court heard.

"I have been left traumatised by what happened and every time I go to bed I hear shouts and screams. I hear them shouting 'I want your arm - I want your leg'. Sometimes I have to ask my mum to come and sit with me," he said, adding he could not even make a Pot Noodle without help from his mother. Referring to a series of testimonials handed to the judge, the barrister said his client, one of four children of separated parents, was 'well thought of' and was 'determined to try and change his ways'. The relationship between his parents was 'always toxic' but had deteriorated, he said, adding his client had 'always smoked cannabis'.
