Attack victim Guido has health complications

Guido Nasi, the Italian man who was left paralysed after he was the victim of an unprovoked attack in Dublin 17 years ago, has undergone surgery after suffering further health complications.

Guido, who turns 34 tomorrow , has spent the last half of his life struggling to cope with irreversible injuries after he was struck over the head in Dublin’s Fairview Park in 1999.

The attack left the teenager partially sighted and no longer able to walk or even feed himself. It was his first trip to Ireland.
