Dominic Calder, 18, Mikel Mulqueen, 19, and Emmanuel Kamara, 24 are all charged with his murder but have not appeared in the witness box during a trial at the Old Bailey.In her closing statement on Tuesday,  prosecutor Sarah Whitehouse, told a jury to “pay attention to those jigsaw puzzle pieces” of a night that involved multiple phone calls between devices.

She said the men were seen together riding bicycles in Tubbs Road before “travelling in a convoy of cars… to find their quarry, Meshach Williams and his friend”. The court heard a VW Passatt was owned by Mulqueen.A Renault Clio had been bought by Calder, who was identified as being in the vehicle on the night through phone records to a nearby micro cell in the High Street.

“They were driving around for an hour and a half… They all disappeared together on their bikes before these cars appeared. The jury are required to be convinced beyond a reasonable doubt that the trio are guilty of murder in order to convict.
