A 24-year-old man has been convicted of the murder of his ex-girlfriend in Croydon, following a six-day trial at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
The court heard that Haron had climbed through a window at the property in search of Felecia. Following a confrontation, Haron violently attacked her with a knife, inflicting the fatal injuries. He was arrested later that day and found in possession of the weapon he used in the attack.
