- A Leicester shopkeeper who played the victim on camera in an interview with ITV News after an explosion at his store has been found guilty of carrying out the "bomb-like" blast that killed five people.
Aram Kurd was convicted along with his accomplices Akran Ali and Hawkar Hassan over a plot to claim a £300,000 insurance pay-out.
