Police offer £20,000 reward for information over fatal stabbing
A year after his death, the police offers £ 20,000 for any information about the deadly stabbing of a 20 -year -old man in an East London park.
20 -year -old Imran Maroof was killed on July 27 last year after a fight in Newham Park Park. Police officers came to the scene at 19.00 to find the young man who suffered from a knife injury.
Despite the attempts of emergency services to stabilize Mr. Maroof, the metropolitan police said he died at the scene.
A 16 -year -old child, who could not be named for legal reasons, was arrested in connection with the murder the following month and later appeared in the Bexley Magistrate Court. However, the case against him later fell.
A police spokesman confirmed that no accusation was imposed.
Detective Chief Inspector Samantha Townsend, South South. Maroof said that the murder of the young man had a “deep effect on his family and added that he was“ determined ”to find the murderer of Met.
