Final five men sentenced over murder of 21-year-old Kyron Lee

The final five men have been sentenced over the killing of Slough man Kyron Lee.

A complex police investigation has been ongoing since 21-year-old Kyron was knocked off his bike and stabbed by a group of machete wielding attackers on October 2, 2022.

Kyron died at the scene in Waterman Court despite the best efforts of paramedics.

Since the fatal attack, police have been working to track down those responsible, some of whom fled abroad.

Today at Reading Crown Court, sentences were handed down to the following people:

• Ilias Almallah, aged 22, of Eltham Avenue, Slough, was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum of 24 years. A jury found him guilty of murder on March 26.
• Mohamed Abdulle, aged 22, of Kenbury Drive, Slough was sentenced to 17 years in prison.
  He pleaded guilty to conspiracy to cause grievous bodily harm with intent on August 7, 2023.
• Hamze Almallah, aged 29, of Eltham Avenue, Slough was sentenced to two years and eight months in prison. He pleaded guilty to one count of assisting an offender on June 5.
• Hamid Gaafar, aged 20 of Commercial Road, Portsmouth, was handed a two-year suspended prison sentence and told to complete 130 hours of unpaid work. He pleaded guilty to two counts of assisting an offender on June 3.
• Brian Visaho, aged 20 of Station Street, Portsmouth, was handed a two-year suspended prison sentence and told to complete 130 hours of unpaid work. He pleaded guilty to two counts of assisting an offender on June 3.

After Kyron was knocked off his bicycle by the driver of a stolen black VW Golf, Ilias Almallah and three other men, Khalid Nur, Mohammed Elgamri and Yaqhub Mussa, jumped out the car and chased Kyron into Waterman Court.

He then suffered fatal stab wounds and collapsed on the floor and died.

His attackers fled the scene in the car, which Fras Seedahmed was driving.

Hamze Almallah helped his brother, Ilias, by paying for a flight to Madrid soon after the murder and accompanying him to Spain to ensure he evaded police.

Gaafar and Visaho provided accommodation to Seedahmed and Elgamri in Portsmouth and helped them evade arrest when police attended their accommodation to arrest them in relation to the murder.

Abdulle was involved in the preparation for the attack and was with the group shortly before Kyron was murdered.

He fled the UK to the Netherlands after the attack and was extradited back to the UK in January 2023.

Senior Investigating Officer, Detective Chief Inspector Mike Roddy, said: “The sentencing of these five men brings conclusion to the case following the death of Kyron Lee in Slough in 2022.

“I know that no sentence will serve as complete solace for Kyron’s family, but I hope that the fact the case has now concluded and eleven men have been brought to justice and between them will serve very lengthy prison terms offers some closure for them.

“I hope this sentence sends a clear message to anyone to those considering aiding others who have committed crime that they will be caught and brought in front of the court.”
