OAP's false teeth "crushed" in fatal beating


THE FATAL attack on 81-year-old Mushin Ahmed (pictured) was so forceful that it crushed his dentures and forced them from his mouth.
Prof Geoff Craig described at Sheffield Crown Court this morning how “heavily blood-stained” pieces of the pensioner's false teeth were found with him two hours after he was attacked.

Causing the damage would require “considerable force”, he told jurors.
Dale Jones (30) of East Bawtry Road and Damien Hunt (30) of Doncaster Road both deny murdering Mr Ahmed.
The trial continues.
