A man who murdered two sisters at random in a park has been jailed for life, with a minimum term of 35 years, BBC News reported.

Danyal Hussein, 19, repeatedly stabbed Bibaa Henry, 46, and Nicole Smallman, 27, at Fryent Country Park in Wembley, northwest London, on 6 June 2020.

He killed them after a birthday party in a supposed "sacrifice" he claimed he believed would give him a lottery win.

Their bodies were found by Smallman's boyfriend the day after they had been reported missing to police.

Jurors had heard how the teenager embarked on a "campaign of vengeance" against random women. Hussein apparently thought that if he sacrificed six women, this would help him win a Mega Millions Super Jackpot lottery prize of £321m.

Hussein stabbed Henry eight times before slashing Smallman 28 times as she fought back. He then dragged the bodies into bushes.
