A husband who hacked his brother-in-law to pieces was caught when a severed thumb 'fell from the sky' after being dropped by a bird, a court heard today.
Mohammed Riaz, 33, allegedly kidnapped Mahmood Ahmad, 41, and tortured him to death in an attempt to track down his estranged ex-wife Nahid Ahmad.
He enlisted the help of five accomplices to kidnap, imprison and murder father-of-two Mahmood with a mechanical butcher's saw.
His remains have never been found and the gang was only arrested after a member of the public found Mahmood's severed left thumb in a car park.
CCTV footage captured the digit falling mysteriously from the sky and police believe it might have been dropped by a bird which had picked it up.
