The boy left orphaned after an Islamophobic attack on the Afzaal family in London, Ont., in 2021 says he wishes he could still have his sister to fight with, his mom's cooking and the house he grew up in. The 11-year-old's statement was the culmination of two days of emotional testimony by relatives, friends and community members as the sentencing hearing for convicted killer Nathaniel Veltman wrapped up Friday.
The emotional sentencing hearing for the man convicted in the attack on a Muslim family in 2021 continued Friday in London, Ont., with more victim impact statements. "He took from us what did not belong to him and there is no way to take it back," said a friend of Yumnah Afzaal, 15, who died along with her mom, dad and grandmother. Her young brother was also severely injured in the truck attack.
