Pair jailed for riot thefts

Ashraf Rossli, 21, had been in Britain for only a month when he was knocked to the ground with a smashed jaw in London on August 8 last year.

John Kafunda, 22, was caught on camera lifting him up and pretending to help, but seconds later Kafunda and Reece Donovan, 22, began stealing property worth £500 from his rucksack.

Donovan, of Cross Road, Chadwell Heath, east London, was sentenced to a total of five years for robbery, violent disorder and burglary at Wood Green Crown Court.

Kafunda, of Eastwood Road, Ilford, east London, was sentenced to three-and-a-half years for robbery and nine months for violent disorder, to run consecutively.
