Murder Convictions

28 August 2024

Following a 4-week trial at Snaresbrook Crown Court, three individuals were convicted of the machete murder of a 25-year-old man on Olympic Way, Wembley. The attack was believed to have been a revenge attack motivated by a feud between rival Wembley area gangs. The victim, not a gang member, was stabbed at least 23 times.

The three twenty-one year old defendants were each sentenced on the 28th August to life imprisonment, with minimum terms of 28, 25, and 24 years respectively.

Anthony Orchard KC and Louise Oakley appeared on behalf of the Crown, instructed by Olcay Sapanoglu of CPS Homicide.
