SEVEN teenagers have now been charged for a range of offences in connection with the killing of a 22-year-old Somalian student in Southall in September.
Ashley Quashie-Pawnall, 18, of Keith Grove, Shepherds Bush, will appear at Ealing Magistrates Court later today, charged with the murder of Yasin Abdirahman.
He is also charged with violent disorder and conspiracy to commit grievous bodily harm (GBH).
A 16-year-old boy from Acton, who cannot be named because of his age, is also in court today accused of conspiracy to commit GBH, in connection with the murder of the London Metropolitan University student in Navigator Drive on September 3.
Three other teens appeared before Ealing magistrates yesterday in connection with the case.
One of them, a 15-year-old from West Ealing, was also charged with Yasin's murder.
He also appeared on charges of violent disorder and conspiracy to commit GBH.
Richard Alexander Mark, a 19-year-old from Vespan Road, Hammersmith, and a 17-year-old from Uxbridge, appeared alongside the 15-year-old.
Both appeared on charges of conspiracy to commit GBH.
All three were remanded in custody.
Another 15-year-old has also been charged with the murder, and appeared at Acton Youth Court yesterday.
A 17-year-old boy is due to appear at the Old Bailey next Wednesday, charged with murder, violent disorder and conspiracy to commit GBH.
