Teen Found Guilty of Murdering Huddersfield Boy
A 17-year-old from Huddersfield has been found guilty of murdering Khayri, after a trial at Leeds Crown Court. The boy, along with a 15-year-old who already pleaded guilty, will be sentenced at a later date.
Tragic Stabbing on Woodhouse Hill
Khayri was fatally stabbed in the chest while walking on Woodhouse Hill, Huddersfield, on September 21 last year. Two males approached him before the attack. Despite emergency first aid and surgery at Leeds General Infirmary, Khayri sadly died.
