Man with tattoo of Hitler’s signature guilty of attempted murder after stabbing asylum seeker

UK

A man with Adolf Hitler’s signature tattooed on his arm has been found guilty of attempted murder after stabbing an asylum seeker.

Callum Parslow, 31, attacked a man at the Pear Tree Inn near Worcester in April during a “protest” against small boat crossings.

He was convicted of attempted murder today after a trial at Leicester Crown Court.

Parslow also pleaded guilty to unconnected charges, including a sexual offence.

The court heard he also stored Nazi memorabilia and weapons at his bedsit.

During the trial, Parslow admitted wounding and said he had made the 4.5-mile journey to the hotel on 2 April to stab “one of the Channel migrants” because he was “angry and frustrated”.

His victim, originally from Eritrea in East Africa, was eating a meal in a conservatory when he was attacked, and said of his survival: “I still look at it as a miracle. God saved me.”

At the time of the stabbing, the hotel was largely closed to the public due to renovation work, having previously been contracted to house asylum seekers from November 2022 to February 2024.
