A 14-year-old boy, whose identity cannot be disclosed for legal reasons, has been charged with the murder of Nathaniel Shani, and has appeared at Manchester Magistrates Court today. This development follows an extensive investigation conducted by the Greater Manchester Police Major Incident Team.
The charge stems from the tragic fatal stabbing of Nathaniel Shani, which occurred on Friday, 15 September 2023, in the vicinity of Tavistock Square in Harpurhey, a neighbourhood in Manchester. The incident sent shockwaves through the community and led to a swift police response.
A 13-year-old boy, who had also been taken into custody on suspicion of murder, has been subsequently released on bail. Further legal proceedings are scheduled, with a hearing set to occur at Manchester Crown Square Court tomorrow.
