- Quincy Ffrench, 28, from Tottenham, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for manslaughter and seven years and four months for robbery, to run concurrently.

- Kavindu Hettiarachchi, also known as KBrown Lankan, aged 31, from Harrow, has been sentenced to 13 years in prison for manslaughter and 10 years for robbery.
