Abdul Jalloh, 23, died from stab wounds in a targeted attack while driving on August 5 last year. Two men, Shamiah McKenzie and Codee Godfrey, were sentenced at the Old Bailey for their roles in the crime. McKenzie received a life sentence with a minimum of 22 years, while Godfrey was sentenced to nine years for manslaughter. Investigation revealed a premeditated attack, with the assailants discarding evidence afterward and even returning to the crime scene, showcasing the grave implications of knife violence.
Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Abdul Jalloh, who lost a loved one in shocking circumstances. By carrying and using a knife, their callous act demonstrates once again the devastating and far-reaching effects of knife crime.
CCTV footage shows the two men changed from their bloody clothes to alternative summer clothes, as they returned back to a fatal crime scene.
After the attack they threw the knife and its sheath and McKenzie's bicycle into the Thames at Caledonian Wharf.
The pair packed their bloody clothing and footwear they had been wearing into bags while paramedics were treating Abdul.
