He now awaits sentencing after he was found guilty of attempted murder.
Ali Bhatti, 33, called the police to tell them that he was going out armed with the fearsome weapon and then swung it above his head as he roamed around the streets. Cops were forced to taser him multiple times before he finally fell to the ground and was handcuffed, police said.
Bhatti's rampage began last October 22 when he called the police to say he was going to go out with a samurai sword to commit a crime. He told the call handler he had taken crack cocaine and said he thought someone was trying to kill him.
While still on the phone to the police, he left his house in Crawley, a large town and borough located in West Sussex county, in England, in the U.K., and rode a motorbike around a mile down the road before crashing into a roundabout.
He then marched toward oncoming cars, walking through the traffic at around 8 p.m., waving the Japanese sword in the air before attacking two innocent members of the public.
When a passer-by who recognized Bhatti asked him if he was okay, he launched the unprovoked attack and stabbed the 38-year-old, leaving him with chest and forearm wounds. Bhatti then slashed a second man, 61, who was walking along a nearby sidewalk, leaving him with a large wound to his shoulder.
Two officers managed to tackle the armed suspect and helped get treatment for the two victims. PC Ryan Oakley and Sergeant James Arrol-Barker were the first on the scene and they tasered Bhatti multiple times before the electric shock took effect and he fell to the tarmac.
As soon as he did, the officers handcuffed him and seized the weapon and arrested him.
Bhatti was found guilty by a jury of one count of attempted murder, one count of grievous bodily harm with intent and possession of a bladed article in a public place at Hove Crown Court on Tuesday, August 30.
Detective Constable Scott Parry, of the Crawley Criminal Investigations Department at Sussex Police, said after the conviction that both men suffered serious physical injuries and lasting emotional trauma.
He added: “This was an unprovoked and vicious attack on two innocent members of the public, who just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. The lives of both men have been severely impacted by this assault–not only in their recovery from the physical injuries, but also the mental scars they now endure.
“I commend their bravery in giving evidence and thank them for supporting our investigation. I hope the verdict delivered today will help them move forward from this deeply traumatic incident, safe in the knowledge a dangerous man has been brought to justice.”
Speaking after the incident, PC Oakley said he also needed counseling after the incident. He added: “I’d be naive to say I was fine after the incident. I didn’t speak to anyone about it for quite some time.
“It was my sergeant that recognized this and she supported me, getting me to open up about what I saw and what I’d experienced. I was referred for help and counseling. It took me a long time and I wouldn’t say I’m 100 percent back but I’m almost there.
“Teamwork is a massive part of the service and it helps us to aspire to succeed. I had teamwork at the time of the incident and teamwork to support me afterwards, and I’d like to thank my sergeants and colleagues for that.”
PC Oakley and Sargeant Arrol-Barker were nominated for a 2022 Police Federation Bravery Award, and at a special ceremony held in London last month, found out they were the winners for the South East region.
Sargeant James Arrol-Barker said: “When I found out I was nominated for the award, I was very proud in the first instance. As most of us have said, it’s just our job. We joined the job to save people, keep people safe, and when you do something like that, it just comes naturally. So to be nominated for an award was particularly special and was a great privilege.”
PC Oakley added: “Once the incident was over, a couple of months later, I was told that I’d been nominated for an award. I was shocked, honored and I felt undeserving. As a police officer, there’s a commitment we make to protect the public and act when others might run away or freeze.
“We are all people, we all take action and risk our lives every day to protect the public. It’s why we signed up to the job.”
Bhatti will be sentenced at the same court in September.
