And now, 20-year-old Faisal Hussain and 21-year-old Jassdeep Singh have been jailed for their part in the incident.<\/p>\n

Hussain, of Goldhill Road in Handsworth was jailed for six years after pleading guilty to conspiring to commit grievous bodily harm and possession of a bladed article.<\/p>\n

Singh, of Ingestre Road in Wolverhampton, was jailed for four years after he was found guilty of grievous bodily harm following a trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court earlier this year.<\/p>\n

Det Con Leah Povey, from West Midlands Police’s Major Crime Team, said: “This was a horrific attack in broad daylight.<\/p>\n

“There’s no justification for such extreme violence and these two men will rightly be spending time behind bars for their actions.”<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for the force added: “Two men have been jailed after an attack involving machetes in Wolverhampton.<\/p>\n

“Faisal Hussain and Jassdeep Singh were both jailed for their involvement in an attack where a man was assaulted and attacked with machetes on Barcroft Road, Wolverhampton, at around 4.30pm on 13 February this year.<\/p>\n

“An investigation was immediately launched and officers carried out extensive CCTV enquiries to identify those involved and arrested Singh, and Hussain, later that month.<\/p>\n

“Hussain, of Goldhill Road, Handsworth, was jailed for six years after the 20-year-old previously pled guilty to conspiring to commit grievous bodily harm (GBH), and possession of a bladed article.<\/p>\n

“Singh, of Ingestre Road, Wolverhampton, was jailed for four years after the 21-year-old was found guilty of GBH following a trial at Wolverhampton Crown Court earlier this year.”<\/p>\n
