# Two men jailed for car 'cannibalism' in UK city
Two Birmingham residents, Mohammed Haydar and Mohammed Khan, have each received a jail sentence of four years and three months for their involvement in a car 'cannibalism' scheme. This illegal activity, which took place in Birmingham, involved the theft of car parts from numerous vehicles.
The incidents spanned a period during which the pair targeted parked cars, ultimately leading to significant damage and loss for vehicle owners. The thefts caused not only material harm but also resulted in “substantial financial loss, inconvenience, recovery costs, insurance implications and considerable distress,” warned local law enforcement.
Authorities noted the importance of such cases in maintaining public safety. The conviction of Haydar and Khan serves as a reminder of the severe penalties associated with automotive theft and related activities.
