Saudi Arabian student, 20, is stabbed to death during placement in Cambridge - as man, 21, is charged with murder
A Saudi Arabian student has been stabbed to death during his placement in Cambridge. Mohammed Algasim, 20, was pronounced dead at the scene of Mill Park at 12.01am on Saturday despite the best efforts of paramedics to save him. A 21-year-old man from Cambridge has been charged with murder and appeared before Peterborough Magistrates' Court today. He is due to appear before Cambridge Crown Court for a preliminary hearing on Tuesday. Police were called to the incident at 11.27pm following reports of violence. The street, near to Cambridge railway station, consists largely of apartment blocks - with floral tributes now left on the pavement outside one of the buildings. A message, on a piece of paper taped to a barrier behind the tributes, said 'may your soul be at peace' and had heart shapes drawn on it. It also said 'inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi raji'un', which is an Arabic phrase meaning 'to God we belong and to Him we return'. Police said that Mr Algasim had been on a 10-week placement studying in Cambridge. EF International Language Campuses Cambridge, a private school offering English language courses to overseas students, said it was 'deeply saddened' to confirm one of its adult students had died. Cambridgeshire Police said on Monday that it is believed Mr Algasim was 'stabbed in an unprovoked attack'. A post-mortem examination is due to take place on Tuesday. The force said that Chas Corrigan, of Cambridge, has been charged with murder and possession of a knife in a public place. A 50-year-old man, also from Cambridge, was arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. He remains in custody.

Bizarre moment Aussie accused of drunken car-jacking rampage in Bali is interrogated by cops in his undies at luxury villa
A heavily tattooed Australian was drunk and violent when he hijacked an SUV and struck two people in a late-night joyride, Balinese police allege. The man, identified by local police only as WRJ, allegedly stole the Toyota Avanza outside a hotel in Seminyak about 1.30am on Sunday. The Australian is alleged to have stolen the vehicle from a security guard who parked it outside hotel Eden the Residence at the Sea. Chief of the North Kuta Police, Pasek Sudina, revealed fresh details of the Australian's alleged joyride, before the car was found torched later in the morning. The Australian, allegedly intoxicated, had been acting aggressively in the lead-up to the alleged carjacking, he claimed. WRJ allegedly choked another security guard nearby, before the Avanza's owner fled his car, leaving the keys in the ignition. The Australian then entered the car and drove away, before the owner and a security guard gave chase on a motorcycle. During the chase, they claimed the Avanza struck a foreign pedestrian and made off down an alley. The guards returned to the Eden villa complex and attempted to track the car using a phone believed to have been left inside it. They were led to a road 8km east of the hotel but neither the Australian nor the car was found. Firefighters later discovered it nearby, burning beside a building. Police visited Eden the Residence and arrested RJW at a villa inside the complex. 'A public safety disturbance occurred involving a foreign national... who was allegedly intoxicated and acted aggressively, including hijacking a security guard's vehicle while the victim was resting inside,' Police Chief Sudina said. 'During the escape, the suspect hit another foreign national and attempted to flee through a narrow alley. He was eventually apprehended... and taken to the station for legal processing.' He said the victim lost about $14,000 in the alleged theft. 'The North Kuta Police Criminal Unit has detained the foreign suspect for intensive interrogation related to suspected assault, destruction of property, and theft,' he said. Police are now working with immigrations officials to ascertain the Australian's visa status and consider their next move. 'The North Kuta Criminal Unit will transfer the case, including the suspect and the evidence, to Badung District Police for further investigation and prosecution,' Police Chief Sudina said. Footage from the scene showed the Avanza engulfed in flames tucked against the side of a building as flames burned an overhead awning. Firefighters from two trucks turned their hoses on the SUV and the building beside it. The car was completely destroyed in the fire, with the interior burnt away and the windows outwardly shattered in the blaze. The home suffered minor damage. The Australian was arrested and taken to North Kuta Police Station.
