Apr 9, 2019 | 12:07 PM

A Calgary homeless man has been found not guilty of second-degree murder in the stomping of another shelter client.

Faud Yasir Ali was charged after Mustafe Mohamud Hussein died in the summer of 2015.

Court heard the Somalian-born man was beaten and stomped into a coma.

Ali testified in his own defence and denied any involvement in the attack.

The trial judge ruled that surveillance images of the killer did not resemble the accused.
