Kyron Lee: two guilty of murder
Seedahmed and Almallah convicted after trial
A jury has found two men guilty of murdering Kyron Lee in Cippenham.
Kyron, 21, died after being stabbed during an attack in Waterman Court on the evening of October 2, 2022.
The Slough man had been knocked off his bike by a car in Earls Lane and chased into Waterman Court by a group of attackers before the fatal blow was landed.
Paramedics rushed to the scene but Kyron was pronounced dead at 9.45pm that evening.
In a tribute in the aftermath of Kyron’s death, his mother described him as the ‘kindest, most loving genuine person’ who ‘had an ability to make everyone feel special’.
Kyron’s killing caused deep shock in the community and friends, family and neighbours held a vigil in Waterman Court where speeches were made and balloons let off into the sky.
The 21-year-old’s brother Kaselle Lee was among those to make a speech,
while flowers, candles and written tributes adorned the road in memory of him.
A relative of Kyron’s who did not wish to be named, told the Express after the vigil: “It was amazing to see how many lives he actually touched because he was so well known around the area.
“I will remember Kyron’s cheeky smile – it was infectious. And the respect he showed me was on another level.
“He had his whole life ahead of him and did not deserve this.”
At Reading Crown Court on Tuesday, a jury found
Fras Seedahmed, 19, of Surrey Avenue, Slough, guilty of Kyron’s murder following a four-week trial.
Ilias Almallah, 22, of Eltham Avenue, Slough, was also found guilty of murder.
Khalid Nur, 21, of Graylands Close, Slough, and Mohammed Elgamri, 19, of University Way, East London, were also found guilty of murder in July following a two-month trial.
Yahqub Mussa, of Daylesford Grove, Slough, admitted a murder charge in June.
The men are set to be sentenced at a later date.
