-- "When sword-wielding attacker Mohammed Al-Asaad came around after surgery, he was charged with attempted murder of a police officer, but his lawyer, Oliver Abergel, was able to negotiate a guilty plea to the lesser offence of assault of a peace officer with a weapon. After the judge credited the attacker for house arrest and pre-custody time, Al-Asaad, 29, will have to serve four more months in jail." --
