A victim of the suspected terror attack near Finsbury Park Mosque does not remember what happened, a relative has said.

Pedestrians were targeted by an attacker driving a van early on Monday, with one man pronounced dead at the scene and nine taken to hospital.

One relative, who wished to remain anonymous, said Hamza Sharif was struck and is recovering in hospital.

"He is bleeding out of his ear, but in general his health was stable," he told the Press Association after visiting his uncle in hospital.

"He has a fracture in his skull - but they still don't know why the bleeding from his ear is not stopping yet," the Somali-born man said.

He added that Mr Sharif "does not remember anything" of the attack and kept asking immediately after the incident "what was wrong".

The man said: "I have been living in London now almost eight years - it is a good place, a safe place, but after what happened it doesn't seem to be as we thought it was."

He added: "Hopefully we won't see what we saw again."

All of the casualties injured in the attack, which happened at around 12.20am, were Muslim and the area was busy after Ramadan night prayers.

Witnesses described hearing the van driver, who was detained by members of the public at the scene, shout: "I'm going to kill Muslims."

The man was initially arrested on suspicion of attempted murder but Scotland Yard said he was later arrested for the commission, preparation or instigation of terrorism including murder and attempted murder.

Police said the attack happened while a man, who later died, was receiving first aid after being taken ill in Seven Sisters Road.

It is not clear whether there is any link between his death and the attack.
