A white supremacist inspired by ISIS executioner Jihadi John was jailed for life after trying to kill an Asian dentist with a hammer and machete in a supermarket.

Zack Davies, 26, of Mold, North Wales, shouted ‘White Power’ and ‘I did it for Lee Rigby’ as he attacked Dr Sarandev Bhambra in the town’s Tesco store last January.

He was convicted of Dr Bhambra’s attempted murder and jailed for a minimum of 14 years.

Davies, who had posed in Nazi uniform and even dressed as Jihadi John, left home to kill his mother’s boyfriend but after failing to find him he tried to murder Dr Bhambra instead.

Sentencing him to a minimum term of 14 years, Judge Rhys Rowlands told Davies: ‘This was a dreadful offence in which an innocent young man was set upon with great savagery in broad daylight in front of others. It was a racist attack. You are a very dangerous young man.’

He added: ‘One can only imagine the sheer terror you subjected him to.’
Davies was an open racist and owned posters, flags, armbands, and leaflets linked to Nazism, and had bought himself a lock knife with a swastika on the handle.

Dr Bhambra said that Davies was a white supremacist who had tried to kill him because of his ethnicity. He added : ‘Imagine your own sons, daughters, brothers or sisters facing my reality and you may begin to understand and appreciate what my family and I have been going through in the last nine months.

‘While Zack Davies has been convicted and sentenced for attempting to kill me I am convinced that the background behind the incident has not been explored fully.

Dr Bhambra described his attacker as a coward. ‘He attacked me from behind and intended to behead me. By the Grace of God I remained conscious and was able to defend myself.
