A 22-year-old man has been sentenced to life in prison for the "unprovoked and senseless" murder of a Saudi Arabian student.
Mohammed Algasim, 20, was stabbed in the neck outside student accommodation in Cambridge in August 2025.
Prosecutors said construction worker Chas Corrigan, of Holbrook Road, Cambridge, attacked Algasim with a kitchen knife after "an evening of drinking and using drugs".
At Cambridge Crown Court on Thursday, Corrigan was sentenced to life, to serve a minimum term of 22 years and six months in prison after he was found guilty of murder at an earlier trial.
Corrigan's father, Peter Corrigan, 50, was also jailed for two years after pleading guilty to assisting an offender after concealing high-visibility clothing that his son had been wearing at the time of the attack.

Ned, how are these two abhorrent (in their own right) offences linked?

You're right. The white British man murdered someone unprovoked, while the incident in Barry just saw a serious injury occur.

You genuinely believe that the anger occurred because it was a white person that got stabbed, and not because of the police reaction to the incident. Mad

So would you be calling for rage if the victim in Southampton was black? Of course you wouldn't.
