UK: Muslims set woman on fire in revenge attack

Five men have been convicted in connection with an attack that led to a serious house fire in which a woman and a girl were badly burned.

Five others had previously admitted offences relating to the incidents in Stoke-on-Trent in 2021.

Following an 11-week trial at Nottingham Crown Court, Det Con Howard Davies of Staffordshire Police said: “This was a horrific ordeal for a mother to be set on fire in her own home in front of her daughter by a number of men seeking revenge.”

The men have all been remanded in custody to await sentence at a date to be fixed.
