Cousin of Manchester Arena bomber 'told pregnant woman he wanted to kill her baby' during attack

http://bit.ly/2DRPFho | A cousin of the Manchester Arena bomber said he wanted to kill a pregnant woman's unborn child as he attacked her - kicking her so hard he left a shoe imprint on her face.

Hamman Forjani, 21, has now been jailed for 21 months for the shocking assault on his victim, who was about 28 weeks pregnant at the time, Manchester Crown Court heard.

Forjani, from Fallowfield, repeatedly punched her in the head and body during the incident, it was said.

The woman gave birth prematurely, and the court heard there was a 'concern' that the assault may have caused this.

But a judge said there was no evidence to prove whether it had or not, and said it would be difficult for any doctor to prove the cause.

Thankfully, the baby was born healthy, the court heard.

The court was previously told that Forjani is a cousin of Arena attacker Salman Abedi.
