Adam Henry

A 20-YEAR-OLD man has been charged with the murder of a teenager, who died after being stabbed near Caledonian Road.

Adam Henry, 15, was attacked in Westbourne Road last Tuesday. Paramedics arrived to treat his injuries but the teenager, who was described by his family as “loving”, “good-natured” and “loyal”, later died in hospital.

On Monday, Tsidi Winion, from Camden, was charged with murder and possession of an offensive weapon.

Mr Winion appeared at Willesden Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, detectives have issued urgent appeals to the public as they try to track down 22-year-old Abdel Derdour.

The Met wish to speak to Mr Derdour in connection with Adam’s killing, and say he made off in the direction of Caledonian Road following the incident.

Detective Chief Inspector Allam Bhangoo, who is leading the investigation, said: “Our thoughts remain with Adam’s family at this incredibly difficult time. While a man has now been charged, our investigation continues, and we urge anyone with information who has not yet spoken to us to contact police.”

Chief Superintendent Jason Stewart, who leads policing in Islington, said: “Adam’s family have suffered an unthinkable loss, and we believe someone out there knows something that could help us bring those responsible to justice.

“If you have seen Abdel Derdour in the days following Adam’s murder, please come forward. Even the smallest detail could be the breakthrough our detectives urgently need. Our intelligence suggests Derdour frequents Holborn and the surrounding areas.”
