Newcastle: A barber shop turned into a charred mess after a guy named Dilovan Sindi went wild. He walked in with petrol and a lighter, causing an explosion at Ahmed’s Hair Design.
This 39-year-old was sentenced to over seven years in prison for his reckless actions. He admitted to arson with intent to endanger life and other serious charges.
After the fire, police released shocking photos showing the shop’s blackened interior. Everything was covered in soot, and the damage was extensive. It looked like a scene from a disaster movie.
The incident happened on May 23, 2023, when emergency services got calls about an explosion. Four people ended up in the hospital, and Sindi himself suffered serious injuries.
CCTV footage showed him pouring petrol everywhere before igniting it. Thankfully, no one died, but it could have been much worse.
Police believe Sindi had a dispute with the shop owner, which led to this crazy act. He was initially charged with attempted murder but later pleaded guilty to lesser charges.
Detective Inspector Rona Malessa expressed relief that no fatalities occurred. She praised the victims for their strength and thanked the emergency services for their quick response.
It’s a reminder that violent actions have serious consequences, and the community will not tolerate such behavior.
