A 29 -year -old, inspired by the Islamic State, was today sentenced by a British court to life imprisonment as he put a bomb in a maternity ward, hidden in a speed of speed, with the aim of “killing as many nurses as he could”.

Mohammed Farouk, whose court described as a “lonely wolf”, was radicalized on his own. He built the explosive mechanism by copying the perpetrators of the attack on the Boston Marathon, which killed three people and injured hundreds on April 15, 2013.

Farouk, who was an apprentice nurse, targeted the Obstetrician Clinic of St. James Hospital in Leeds, Northern England. Its original goal, however, was an American air base, in which it failed to get into security measures.

According to the prosecutor, he wanted to “kill as many nurses as he could” but prevented him from a man who smoked his cigarette outside the hospital.

“You were ready to commit the unthinkable, trigger a bomb in a hospital,” the judge told Mohammed Farouk, announcing his sentence: life imprisonment, with the right to release after 37 years. “Your responsibility is not reduced by the fact that you have been cowardly and turned you on,” a passerby added, he added.

During the trial, prosecutors praised the courage of this passerby. “He realized that something was not going well and started talking to him instead of moving away. This simple act has certainly saved many lives. “
