THE BROTHER of a teenager left critically ill after he was attacked by three Huddersfield men, has spoken about his family’s ordeal.

The three attackers of Gurmick Gosal are awaiting sentence for their role in the brawl outside Gatecrasher nightclub in Leeds, which left the 19-year-old close to death.

He has been left with long-term head injuries, will need to undergo further surgery and is lucky to have survived.

Doctors told Gurmick’s family to expect the worst after the teenager, from Pudsey in Leeds, lay in intensive care for three weeks.

His head had been repeatedly kicked and stamped on as he lay on the pavement outside the nightclub.

Kulvinder Rayt, 25, of Church Street, Paddock, has been found guilty of two counts of grievous bodily harm and affray at Leeds Crown Court.

His brother Govinder Rayt, 21, of Kirkwood Drive, Lindley, was found guilty of affray alongside friend Hardeep Singh, 24, of Long Lane, Dalton.

All three will be sentenced on November 6 for their roles in the attack.

Gurmick’s brother, Channy Singh Gosal, from Leeds, revealed that the whole ordeal has been a “nightmare” for his family.

“He’s got half of his head missing,’’ the businessman said.

“Since the incident there has been countless trips back and forth to doctors and specialist treatment.

“He’s suffering from concentration problems because of his brain injuries and anxiety and mild depression.

“He can’t work or study. They are going to put a titanium plate in his head to try and fix it.”

Leeds Crown Court heard how the brawl broke out after a row between the Rayt brothers and Govinder Rayt’s ex-girlfriend, Priya Mehmi, during stag night celebrations.

They heard how Gurmick’s friend, Varinder Jassi, stepped in to help Miss Mehmi and the Huddersfield men walked away.

But they later returned to attack the four Leeds men.

Varinder Jassi had his jaw broken and Gurmick had his head stamped on.

A bottle was smashed over the head of their friend, Balraj Dhillon.

Channy said his whole family had suffered following the attack on his brother, a former pub doorman.

He said: “I hope they and their families go through what we’ve been through.

“My family has been through hell and back.

“But now the tables have turned and they have been convicted.

“Nothing is ever going to compensate for what happened to Gurmick.

“But we are happy with a little piece of justice and people knowing who these disgusting people are.

“Collectively they were together in this – they could have killed somebody.

“A fight is a fight, but kicking someone in the head and then stamping on their head is totally different.

“I hope they rot in jail.”

Gurmick’s father, Manjit Singh Gosal, a former president of Leeds Road Sikh Temple in Bradford, is well-known and respected among the Sikh Community across West Yorkshire.

Channy, 33, said many friends and family were around Gurmick’s bedside to offer support after the incident on October 4 last year.

He said: “My mother and father were soul-destroyed because at the time they didn’t know whether he was going to live or die.

“The doctors told us to expect the worst when he was sedated in intensive care.

“No mother or father should have to go through this. It just shows what an evil world we live in.

“We were really angry at first. But when we look at it now we’re just happy that Gurmick is alive.”

Gurmick is still attending regular consultations with specialists to help heal his skull and rehabilitate him.

Channy said: “I’m just glad he’s a strong lad and he has pulled through.

“If it was anybody else they might not have survived.”
