15-year-old in court on murder charge

A 15-year-old boy appeared at the Old Bailey yesterday charged with the murder of a student.

Salum Kombo, 18, was found lying in a pool of blood after being stabbed near his home in Bow, east London, in December.

The youth, who cannot be identified because of his age, was remanded in custody to another hearing next month and will face trial in May.
