A Dewsbury man has been jailed for 16 years after being found guilty of murdering his brother.
Ibrahim Mahetar, aged 35, of School Crescent in Dewsbury Moor, attacked his 31-year-old brother on 31 August last year.
Naseer Yusef Mahetar suffered significant head injuries after being struck with a baseball bat at an address in Town Street, in Batley. He died as a result of his injuries.
Ibrahim was found guilty of murder following a week-long trial at Leeds Crown Court.
Detective Inspector Emma Winfield, of the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team, said: “We welcome the sentence which has been passed down to Ibrahim Mahetar today. He inflicted a sustained and violent attack on his brother; causing him fatal head injuries.
“I would like to pay tribute to Naseer’s family who have been left utterly devastated by his death. They have had the added trauma of reliving the events through the court process which has been extremely difficult for them.”
