Shooting victim Dilbag Singh talks to LEPTV about his ordeal
A man has relived the moment he was shot at point blank range on a busy Preston street – leaving him with 56 pellets in his body.
Kyle Parvez faces a lengthy jail term after a jury found him guilty of the attempted murder of Dilbag Singh.
Speaking exclusively to the Lancashire Evening Post, Mr Singh says of the shooting: "I just felt an impact and that was it."
But in a sensational development on Wednesday Mr Singh rushed to Preston Crown Court after the verdict was delivered to defend Parvez and a second man, Zainul James, who was convicted of an arson connected to the case.
Denying their involvement in the case Mr Singh, from Deepdale, said of the verdict "It's not on".
The jury also convicted Parvez, of Arnhem Road, Callon, of having a firearm with intent to murder.
The jury convicted co-defendant James, 18, of no fixed address, of arson, being reckless as to whether the lives of residents on Manor House Lane were endangered, in relation to a car being torched following the shooting.
Both men were remanded in custody and will be returned to Preston Crown Court for sentencing on December 23.
