Three further people have been charged in connection with the murder of a man in west London.

Janayo Lucima, 21, was found with a gunshot wound by emergency services on Comeragh Road in West Kensington at around 10.15pm on April 1.

He was treated by paramedics but pronounced dead 40 minutes later.

Police on Tuesday confirmed that a 16-year-old male had been charged with murder after being extradited from Spain.

Issa Siteri, 18, from west London, returned voluntarily to the UK from Morocco last Saturday and was charged with murder.

Yusuf Muhudin Abdi, 18, from west London, also returned to the UK voluntarily from Morocco on Saturday and was charged with murder.

All three suspects appeared in custody at the Central Criminal Court on Tuesday where they were remanded in custody to appear at the same court on June 26.

Five other people have been charged in connection with the murder, including 21-year-old Khuedr Al-Jurdi, 22-year-old Muktar Said and three other teenage males who cannot be named as they are aged under 18.

All five will appear at Central Criminal Court at a trial in February 2025.
