The Belfast knife attack suspect appeared in court today – as police scramble to work out his country of origin.
Hadi Alodid, a 30-year-old asylum seeker, has been charged with the attempted murder of Stephen Ogilvie, 44, who lost an eye and suffered injuries to his face, head and back in the attack last month.
Graphic video footage filmed by witnesses and shared on social media showed a man armed with a knife pinning another man to the ground before repeatedly striking him to the face and neck.
