War veteran ‘with a warm heart’, 93, died after he was burgled FIVE times in just nine weeks

War veteran ‘with a warm heart’, 93, died after he was burgled FIVE times in just nine weeks:

"-Leslie Ashton, twice threatened widower with hammer during hour-long ordeal

-Mohammed Nawaz jailed indeterminately after his violent robbery led 'led to death' of pensioner

A ‘good Samaritan’ Home Guard veteran died after being burgled five times in nine weeks.

Following the fourth break-in, Leslie Ashton, 93, developed fatal pneumonia after a callous thug threatened him with a hammer and terrorised him for an hour.

During his final stay in hospital, the widower was burgled again by the same man, Mohammed Nawaz, whom a judge said had caused his ‘eventual deterioration and death’."
