'I knew he had problems with his neighbours - but I could never have imagined he would die so brutally'

The ex-wife of a dad bludgeoned to death by his next-door neighbour told of her devastation following his brutal death. Esmaeil Tofigh was killed by Tarik Hussein, who repeatedly hit him over the head with a hammer in Longsight.

Hussein was suffering from undiagnosed schizophrenia at the time, and harboured delusional beliefs about his 56-year-old neighbour.

He was convinced that Mr Tofigh, a dad-of-two, was spying on him and harming his family, Manchester Crown Court heard. Hussein went round to his neighbour's home, in the early hours of Sunday, February 3, and killed him.

Now, after pleading guilty to manslaughter by reason of diminished responsibility, Hussein, 28, has been sentenced to an indefinite hospital order, to receive treatment for his mental health. BLACK FRIDAY OFFER: Get three months of MEN Premium for FREE with our amazing Black Friday deal.
