Abid Hussain, 39, was jailed for 18 months.

A kebab shop owner was stabbed when an angry dad started a fight at a takeaway over his children being made to wait for food.

The victim was slashed on the arm when violence erupted at King Kebab, in Beeston, Leeds.

A court was shown CCTV footage of the disturbance outside the takeaway on Tempest Road.

The stab victim's son was also hit over the head with a metal bar when he went to help his father as he was attacked by brothers Sajid and Abid Hussain.

Jon Close, prosecuting, told Leeds Crown Court heard how the incident happened on June 8, 2017.

He said: "At 9.10pm Sajid Hussain arrived angry and upset that his two children, who had been in takeaway, had not yet been served."

Sajid, 35, argued with the kebab shop owner before leaving but returned at 11.20pm with his brother.

Mr Close said Abid punched the victim to the head.

He added: "He then felt a sharp pain to his right arm.

"He formed the view that he had been stabbed and that the blow had been struck by Abid."

The court heard the owner's son then went to help his father and took a metal bar out into the street.

Mr Close said the son dropped the metal bar as he fought with Sajid.
