'Muslim boys' locked up

FIVE members of notorious street gang The Muslim Boys are behind bars for their involvement in a knife attack which left a man dead outside a nightclub.
Charles Anokye, 23, was chased outside and stabbed after he bumped into one of the group inside Mass nightclub near St Matthew's Church, Effra Road, Brixton, on August 1, last year.
One of his killers, Edwin Bamfo, 18, was training for a place in the national sprint squad when he was arrested for murder.
The Old Bailey heard at least five young men surrounded Mr Anokye and he was stabbed 13 times in the chest and back.
After Monday's sentence, Detective Chief Inspector Dave Garwood said: "For many reasons, the trial of the self-styled Muslim Boys was a difficult case to prosecute.
"But, despite the travails and challenges of this trial, they are as nothing when compared to how society, in its widest sense, needs to confront the ethos that made this murder and the others like it possible."
Anwar Hussain, 17, of Gresham Road, Brixton, was convicted of murder and jailed for life with a minimum recommended sentence of 12 years.
Bamfo, of Dunbrook Road, Streatham, and 20-year-old Aaron Roberts, of Chapter Road, Kennington, were jailed for 10 years each for manslaughter.
Rico Tracey, 18, of St Louis Court, West Norwood, and Ben Jatto, 17, of Southey Road, Stockwell, were found guilty of violent disorder and caged for two years and 18 months respectively.
Everald Howell, 18, of no fixed address, was cleared of all wrongdoing at the end of the three-month trial.
The jury failed to reach a verdict on Daniel Brown, 20, of St Agnes Place,Kennington, and a 16-year-old who cannot be named. Both now face a retrial.
All denied murder and violent disorder.
