The son of the first victim, 82-year-old Hashi Odowa, said his father used to be a "very confident fit and independent pensioner". More from the consultant psychiatrist who assessed Abbkr.
He said the attack had a "wide and terrible impact on him physically and psychologically" and described how his father had needed skin grafts on his left ear. If he wasn't suffering with mental disorder I don't think he would have committed the offence.
He said his father was still receiving hospital treatment and visiting and audiologist because of hearing loss.
Since the attack in Ealing, he said: "He has become anxious in public and social outings. As he feels people are staring at his severely scarred skin."
He said his father did not go out as much and only visited his mosque occasionally and with an escort, because he was afraid of further attacks.
His father also constantly wakes up in the night screaming about being set on fire and asking for help, he added.
