He assaulted 16-year-old Jamaly before escaping the scene on Seward Street. Despite their best efforts, the schoolboy’s injuries prevented paramedics from saving his life.
Nine days later, at Gatwick Airport, the murderer entered the UK and was subsequently detained.
Detective Chief Inspector Kate Kieran initiated a murder investigation and found the suspect.
