Kevin Biji was locked up for life after stabbing another teenager in the heart with a machete
A 14-year-old thug subjected another boy to a brutal assault while armed with a knife in a city centre car park only two years before he tried to murder a love rival. Kevin Biji was locked up for life on Friday after plunging a machete into his victim's heart. The balaclava-clad 16-year-old lured his target down a dark alleyway by posing as his own girlfriend on Snapchat before launching the horrific attack.
He has one previous conviction for inflicting grievous bodily harm with intent and possession of a bladed article in public in relation to an incident in 2022 when he was only 14. The court heard that this involved a 'prolonged attack, during which the victim lay defenceless on the floor'. Mobile phone footage showed Biji 'astride the victim punching him repeatedly and kneeing him to the head' and in possession of a knife.
