A teenager is accused of killing school boy Kodjo Yenga. He told the Old Bailey that it was Kodjo Yenga who started the fight, he only stabbed him to protect his reputation.
Kodjo a 16 year old boy from Hammersmith Grove, West London died in March last year due to a single stab wound to the heart. The 15 year old boy (14 at the time) accused of killing Kodjo said to the court that he didn’t start it and he didn’t expect his gang to join in. He is one of 6 boys denying stabbing him.
The Old Bailey heard that Kodjo was chased by a gang of boys shouting “kill him”. The suspect who can not be named said one of gang had a rounders bat and one of them had a dog but he didn’t see a knife. He heard that kodjo had been caught. So he went back to his grandpa’s house . and then another member of hid gang came in with blood on his t-shirt and told me to close the doors the police are coming then I told him to get out because I could hear sirens.
