Kamil Mohammed Nadir, 55, drove his Mercedes SUV into his son Rebath Kamil, 40, at the Local Car Wash in Dalmuir, near Glasgow, in July 2021 after he accused his father of infidelity.
Horrifying CCTV footage showed the moment Kamil, a former freedom fighter from Iraq, drove his large vehicle into his son.
After stalling in the forecourt of the car wash, he can be seen rapidly accelerating into the washing area.
Rebath, who was spotted walking away from a car, was smashed into a wall as the car hit him.
Large barrels of water were seen splitting under the force of the crash.
While the CCTV footage has no sound, Kilmarnock High Court, where the case was heard, was told the crash victim screamed at his father ‘you tried to kill me over a woman’.
The court heard that the bitter feud between the father and son began after Nadir and his wife had separated, and Nadir accused Rebath of telling his siblings that he had been seeing another woman.
Rebath told police in the hours after the attack: ‘My father said my brother said I’d seen my dad with another woman.
‘I said I did not say that. I said I had seen him with someone, that’s all.’
But the implication appeared to be enough to infuriate the father, who the court was told had gone to the car wash to confront his sons.
He screamed at them: ‘I will kill you all.’
But Rebath in court denied giving this statement.
Accompanied by an interpreter, he claimed his English was not good enough to ‘say those words.’
‘This is not my statement. These are not my words.’
Rebath in court claimed he did not remember anything about the incident, and said he loved his father, asking the court if he could approach him in the dock and ‘kiss his hand.’
However, Nadir’s youngest son Datsan, told police in 2021 that he and his other brother Daban quickly began beating their dad up in the wake of the attack.
Despite this, Nadir was found guilty of assaulting his son to the danger of his life following a three-day trial.
