A businessman who tried to help a convicted killer get away with murder has been jailed. Khayam Khurshid was one of three men convicted of the murder of 18-year-old Cole Kershaw, a promising boxer who was shot dead in the street.
In the days after the fatal shooting, Dane Blaney provided police with a false alibi for Khurshid. Blaney, who previously ran a valeting business, also broke into a community centre and stole CCTV footage which would have disproved Khurshid's claimed alibi.
He falsely told police that Khurshid was in a car near to the Chesham Fold community centre at the time when Cole was gunned down, Manchester Crown Court heard. Cole was murdered on nearby Chesham Road, about half a mile away.

Khurshid, 29, Kamran Mohammed, 20, and Mohammed Izaarh Khan, 22, were all convicted of murder following a trial in May 2021, and handed life sentences. Now, Blaney, 26, has been jailed for three years after admitting perverting the course of justice and burglary.
The murder trial heard how Cole was shot as he tried to run away from a car crash following a chase. Prosecutors said he was gunned down amid a violent dispute between Kamran Mohammed and Cole's friend, Spencer Woods, with tensions rising between the two months before the killing, on August 12, 2020.
Cole was with Mr Woods at a house party when he spotted a BMW 5 Series, which Mohammed, Khan and Khurshid were travelling in, drive past the house. Moments later, Cole, Mr Woods and three other men left the party and climbed into Mr Woods' Ford Mondeo and began chasing the BMW.
