Yostin Andres Mosquera, 35, is on trial for the murders of Albert Alfonso, 62, and 71-year-old Paul Longworth, on July 8, 2024 in the flat they shared in Scotts Road, Shepherd's Bush, west London.

Mosquera is alleged to have repeatedly stabbed Mr Alfonso, while Irishman Mr Longworth was attacked with a hammer to the back of his head and his "skull shattered", prosecutor Deanna Heer previously told jurors at Woolwich Crown Court.

It was suggested yesterday that Mosquera, a Colombian national who does not speak English, made repeated computer searches to find a freezer.
