Stephen Ogilvie who has learning difficulties was attacked in 2001 at a flat in livingston west lothian by drug dealer david mcleave then aged 21.
Mcleave gave him the date rape drug gbh stripped him poured aftershave over him and set him on fire while he was watching television.
Ogilvie woke up to find his body burning and the ordeal was captured on video by the gang.

This poor man has gone through so much pain and suffering in his life only to go through what he did the other night, no one deserves this.
Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy is demanding a 'full and urgent explanation from the FA and West Ham as to how these incredibly serious allegations (re David Sullivan) have been handled' @talkSPORT

This man is Valdo Calocane who murdered Grace, Barnaby and Ian Coates by stabbing them to death in Nottingham. I have just heard Barnabys Mum on the radio - this animal is currently a patient in a secure mental health unit and is receiving up to £800 in BENEFITS a month as technically he’s not a prisoner! I don’t know whether to laugh or cry. What an absolute insult to the victims families 💔@RestoreBritain
The scale of what the Telegraph has uncovered requires the country to stop and process it methodically.
Between 2015 and 2021, more than £28 billion of British taxpayer money — through foreign aid payments and Covid emergency loans — was appropriated by terrorists, hostile foreign states and organised criminal networks.
The money is described as “beyond reach.”
Those who took it are “unpunished.”
Russia received grants via state-linked companies.
Islamic State received Covid loans.
Chinese military-linked firms received research investment.
And behind all of this sits a Cabinet Office report — the first government assessment ever to quantify this catastrophic leakage — that was deliberately suppressed to spare ministers embarrassment.
Now consider the timeline.
This covers six years spanning three Prime Ministers — Cameron, May, and Boris Johnson — and into the early Starmer era.
It covers the 2015-2019 Conservative governments, the pandemic response, and the transition to Labour.
Multiple Cabinets.
Multiple Chancellors. Multiple foreign secretaries.
All of them operating a foreign aid and emergency lending apparatus that — by the government’s own secret reckoning — channelled tens of billions to Britain’s worst enemies.
None of the money recovered.
None of the recipients punished.
And the report — rather than triggering urgent cross-party accountability — was quietly buried.
The public paid for this report.
They paid for the £28 billion it documents.
They were then deliberately denied the right to know either existed.
If there is a cleaner definition of contempt for the electorate, it is hard to imagine.
Unconfirmed reports coming in the guy has sadly passed away in North Belfast.
Also it’s been said that he lost both his eyes with the attack. 😔
They also took the attacker to the exact hospital the victim was in…
🚨HORRIFIC ATTEMPTED BEHEADING ON THE STREETS OF BELFAST 😱
Graphic Warning ⚠️
Just after 10:30pm last night on Kinnaird Avenue, North Belfast, a man was slashed and stabbed in a frenzied attack, with the suspect on top of him on the ground repeatedly hacking at his head and neck in what looked like an attempt to cut his head off. Blood everywhere.
Hero bystanders dragged the attacker off.
The suspect appears to be a foreign national as he is shouting in a foreign language during the assault.
PSNI have one suspect in custody. Victim rushed to hospital with serious head and neck injuries.
