A second suspect has been charged in connection with the tragic stabbing of film student Finbar Sullivan at Primrose Hill. Khalid Abdulqadir, 18, from Camden, is now facing charges for grievous bodily harm with intent, violent disorder, and possession of a knife. Arrested on 12th April, he’s set to appear at Wimbledon Magistrates’ Court today.
Earlier, 27-year-old Oliuwadamilola Ogunyankinnu was charged with Sullivan’s murder. During a brief court appearance, he insisted he was innocent, claiming, “I didn’t kill anybody, I didn’t stab anybody, they’ve got the wrong person.” His case has been transferred to the Central Criminal Court due to its severity.
The tragic event unfolded when police were called to Primrose Hill around 6.30 pm last Tuesday following reports of a brawl. Finbar, who had been testing out a new camera for his 21st birthday, sadly succumbed to his injuries at this popular north London spot. His father, Christopher, shared that his son died from a leg wound that severed an artery, causing him to bleed out.
As the investigation continues, police are urging anyone with information to contact them. You can provide details anonymously via Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Let’s hope justice prevails for Finbar and his grieving family. 💔📽️
