A 30-year-old man from Chad, Hadi Alodid, accused of a racially motivated knife attack in Belfast that sparked riots and left one man seriously injured, appeared back in court this week. The judge ordered him to hire a lawyer, as he faces multiple serious charges including attempted murder, threatening an NHS worker, and possessing a knife.
