Meanwhile, detectives were appealing for witnesses after a trainee bricklayer was stabbed to death yards from his family home in Barking.
Abrahaman Juma, 24, was found in a communal area of the Harts Lane Estate at 11.31pm on Thursday.
His uncle Haroub today said: “He was a nice guy, a good person. I got a call from his father at midnight and he said his son had been stabbed with a knife. I cannot put how I feel into words.”
Detective Chief Inspector Andrew Packer, who is leading the murder inquiry, said: “I know there were people out and about in Crows Road at the time of the murder. I need to speak with these people as soon as possible as they may have vital evidence.”
Some neighbors said Mr. Juma had been attacked by a gang. He was the 28th mmanaged25 or under to be murdered in London this year. So far the Met has launched at least 66 murder inquiries.
Police were also investigating an “unexplained” death at a flat in Knightsbridge. Officers were called to Beauchamp Place at 4.30pm yesterday to reports that a man in his thirties had been found dead. It was not thought to be suspicious. source the Standard:
