- Two men are now in custody charged with murder, with more arrests possible.
A second man, Samrawi Soloman, aged 20, has been formally charged with the murder of 16-year-old Khadeem Parris. The court appearance took place at Northampton Crown Court.
Khadeem Parris, who hailed from Motherwell, Scotland, tragically died from a stab wound on July 7. The incident occurred at an address on Adnitt Road in Abington, Northampton. Soloman has been remanded into custody pending a hearing on August 17.
This development follows the earlier charging of Fuad Mohamud, also with murder, on July 15. Mohamud also appeared at Northampton Crown Court and is scheduled for a plea hearing on August 17.
Northamptonshire Police confirmed that five individuals have been arrested in connection with the case. Apart from the two men charged with murder, three others – two men aged 19 and 56, and a 51-year-old woman – were arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender. They remain on police bail as inquiries continue.
Detective Chief Inspector Ryan Catling emphasized that while significant progress has been made with the arrests, the investigation is ongoing. Police are appealing for any information from individuals who were in the vicinity of Adnitt Road or Dallington Park between 18:15 and 19:15 BST on July 7. Even seemingly minor details or dashcam footage could be crucial to their efforts to bring all responsible parties to justice.
