Can’t make this stuff up.

A former steward at Manchester United has been convicted of murdering an imam in an ISIS-inspired attack.
Mohammed Syeedy, 21, was jailed for life with a minimum term of 24 years for the murder of Jalal Uddin, 72, after being convicted by an unanimous verdict.
Uddin was bludgeoned to death with a hammer while he travelled home from the Jalalia Jaame mosque in Rochdale on 18 February this year.
Manchester crown court heard he had been under surveillance by Syeedy and his friends, who distrusted him because he practised a form of spiritual healing called Taweez.
Jurors learned Uddin had been labelled in text messages as “Voldemort” by Syeedy and his friends as they believed Taweez to be “black magic”, The Guardian reported.
