Nazi-obsessed knifeman guilty of attempted murder

Callum Ulysses Parslow stabbed an asylum seeker at a hotel

A Nazi-obsessed white supremacist who stabbed an asylum seeker in the chest at a hotel near Worcester was found guilty of attempted murder yesterday.

Callum Ulysses Parslow, 32, who has Adolf Hitler's signature tattooed on his left forearm, attacked Nahom Hagos at the Pear Tree Inn at Hindlip in a "protest” against small boat crossings.

Parslow had bought a knife for £770 online and had written in his "terrorist manifesto" about his "duty to England".

He made the four-and-a-half-mile journey to the rural hotel on 2 April to stab "one of the Channel migrants" because he was "angry and frustrated" at small boat crossings, he said during the three-week trial at Leicester Crown Court.

Parslow, who denied attempted murder but admitted wounding, was found guilty of attempted murder yesterday after jurors deliberated for four hours and 18 minutes.

The trial was told Parslow ran off towards a canal after the stabbing, where he was spotted with what appeared to be blood on his hands.

The court heard that as police closed in, Parslow attempted to post the manifesto document to X, formerly Twitter, tagging in Tommy Robinson and prominent politicians including Sir Keir Starmer, Rishi Sunak, Nigel Farage and Suella Braverman, but the message failed to send because he had copied in too many recipients.
