Patient Nathan Newby was praised by a judge for stopping Mohammad Farooq at St James’s Hospital, in Leeds.
Mohammad Farooq was sentenced to a minimum of 37 years in prison for taking a homemade bomb to St James's Hospital in Leeds with the intent to kill nurses. Farooq, who had become self-radicalized and planned to attack the hospital after failing to access a US base, was talked out of detonating the device by patient Nathan Newby, who was praised by the judge for his extraordinary act of kindness.
