Fresh appeal for help 10 years after murder of student in London

Ola Raji had spent the evening at a friend's house watching a Champions League match between Bayern Munich and Porto before he was killed in Peckham, south London, on the night of Tuesday 21 April 2015.

He had been cycling on the East Surrey Grove estate, near Commercial Way, when he was stabbed and shot in an attack by two men. He later died in hospital.

Raji's sisters, Zainab Raji and Ruki Ware, said the anniversary of their brother's death was "a painful reminder of 10 years of loss". "Our family is not going to get that time back," they said in an appeal.

The independent charity Crimestoppers is offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information that leads to the identification and prosecution of those responsible for the murder.

The Metropolitan police said they were interested in speaking to witnesses, including a woman driving a black Vauxhall Corsa in the area between 9.45pm and 11pm, and two men "who returned to an address in Pear Court at 23.10".
