Fashion designer Nicole Farhi was choked until she lost consciousness during a violent robbery at her London home last year (08).

The French-born style guru was attacked outside her residence in Hampstead, north west London last April (08), by two men who stole her money and jewellery.

Wood Green crown court in north London heard evidence this week (beg25May09) accusing Matthew Mykoo, 27, and his brother Daniel, 28, of grabbing 62-year-old Farhi from behind and strangling her on the driveway until she passed out.

Matthew Mykoo is also accused of brandishing a knife in the alleged attack.

Farhi is one of 18 people allegedly targeted by the brothers in a string of raids.

Matthew Mykoo denies 16 counts of robbery, while brother Daniel has admitted all 16 charges against him.

The trial continues.
