Richard Wright QC

Teenager jailed for 16 years for the revenge killing of 16-year-old boy – Richard Wright QC prosecutes

Richard Wright QC prosecuted Ibrahim Khan, after the fatal attack on Humza Hussain carried out near Challney High School (where both had been pupils) on June 8th.

During the trial at Luton Crown Court, Richard Wright QC said: “The dispute between them had been festering for some time. There was mutual animosity that developed. It is not easily identified and may relate to insults on social media. It may have begun as a petty adolescent grudge that developed.”

Khan was handed a 16-year jail sentence by the trial judge Mr Justice James Goss. Passing a life sentence the Judge said it would be the parole board who would decide on Khan’s release and if released, he would be on licence for rest of his life.
