A man accused of trying to murder a passenger at Leytonstone tube station suffered from paranoid delusions that MI5 was pursuing him, the Old Bailey has heard.

Muhiddin Mire, 30, admits attacking Lyle Zimmerman with a knife but denies attempted murder.

The court heard that on 5 December he attacked mandolin-carrying Mr Zimmerman, 56, from behind and kicked him in the head and body.

He then sawed at his neck with a knife.

According to Mr Rees, Mr Mire also targeted a Polish man, Daniel Bielinski, swinging a knife at him.

He praised Mr Bielinski's bravery for filming the defendant on his phone "at considerable risk to himself" in an effort to stop him from attacking others.

In the footage, Mr Mire is shown lunging towards other Tube passengers.

Mr Mire has pleaded guilty to wounding Mr Zimmerman with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and to attempting to wound four other Tube passengers.

He denies attempted murder.

"Sawed at his neck with a knife".

Are there more disturbing word combinations?
I mean this is up there with "Mama June to headline at local Gentlemans' Club".
