The disturbing incident unfolded as Anjorin was walking to school when, allegedly, Monzo, a 36-year-old dual Spanish-Brazilian national residing in Newham, ran up behind him and inflicted fatal wounds to his neck and chest. This assault was part of a series of five separate attacks over a span of 20 minutes in Hainault on April 30, during which Monzo is accused of injuring four other individuals, including two police officers.
