Heartbroken mum turns off teen son's life support
Two teenagers who stabbed a boy multiple times just days before his 18th birthday have pleaded guilty.
Alith Wal and Nyol Myianol, who are now 20 and 21, were just 17 when they stabbed Mohammad Mohammadi.
The boys had not met before but agreed to meet up at a Geelong shopping centre car park in August 2020 for a one-on-one fight.
Mohammad was stabbed in the heart, and then stabbed again multiple times in the arm and leg.
He was rushed to hospital where he underwent emergency surgery but was declared brain dead.
Tragically, Mohammad’s life support was turned off just days after his 18th birthday.
On Tuesday, Wal and Myianol pleaded guilty to causing injury and affray. They also pleaded guilty to charges of affray and committing offences on bail.
Mohammad’s heartbroken mother and sister broke down in court when they heard Mohammad’s last words which were: "I am going to die. Please take off my shoes.”
"Not only did the stabs that punctured Mohammed's heart and body kill him, but they also broke my heart into a thousand pieces and killed my hope for living," his mother said in a statement.
"It's unbelievable. He was very generous, and didn't want to hurt anyone,” his sister told Nine News.
The men will be sentenced at a later date.
