Ordering him to be detained at a secure mental health facility on Monday, Judge Mr Justice Choudhury said Mohammed had been “by all accounts a kind and loving man” who had doted on his family before he suffered a “complete aberration”.

A day prior to the fatal attack, Mohammed began exhibiting delusional behaviour at a mosque, saying he was unclean, had seen the Prophet Muhammad, was the “vessel of God” and that the family’s food was poisoned, the court was told.

Killer dad who believed he was 'vessel of God' broke every bone in newborn son's skull A dad who killed his newborn son by smashing his skull against a wall during a schizophrenic episode has been given a hospital order.

Kadees Mohammed, 31, woke up in the middle of the night, killed his three-week-old son Ibrahim and attacked his wife and mother with an iron when they tried desperately to stop him at the family home in Dovey Road, Birmingham, on October 18 2022.

Birmingham Crown Court heard Mohammed, who was suffering from undiagnosed schizophrenia, had become fixated on the idea that he may have ADHD and may have been struggling with his sexuality in the weeks leading up to the attack.
