During the trial, it was noted that Wazabakana Elenda Jordan Kukabu, known as Jordan, was murdered in a public place by four attackers armed with machetes. This brutal act unfolded outside the Dagenham Heathway Underground station, where Kukabu was confronted while trying to escape with his associates. The confrontation and subsequent attack were described as alarming, showcasing a serious escalation of violence involving youth and weapons in public settings.
Judge Anuja Dhir emphasized the severity of the crime during the sentencing, stating that despite initial threats from the victims, the defendants' retaliatory action was 'out of all proportion.' She noted that this group attack involved a significant degree of premeditation and that all of the defendants, despite their varying roles, contributed to the tragic outcome, leading to a life sentence.
