The family of Sir David Amess have said they're 'sickened' he would have met his killer with a smile as the terrorist is sentenced to die behind bars
Ali Harbi Ali, 26, smiled as he was led to the cells after being given a whole life order for Sir David’s murder - meaning he will never be released from prison.
"There is no elation in our family today following this sentencing," they said in a statement, read outside court by Assistant Commissioner Matt Jukes. "Our last thought before sleep will be of David. We will forever shed tears for the man we have lost. We shall never get over this tragedy. Mr Justice Sweeney says the court had "sincere admiration" for the way Sir David's family dealt with their "incalculable loss, and a trial that was forced on them by the defendant's cowardly refusal to admit his guilt"."The defendant has no remorse or shame, quite the reverse."Veteran Tory Sir David Amess died in the attack last October.
