Teen accused of murdering student feared he "f***** it" and "was done for" just moments before stabbing, jury hears
09.08.2022 - 10:29 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
A teenager accused of the murder of a student in Bury has told a court he feared he was "done for" just moments before the stabbing took place. Abdikarim Abdalla Ahmed, 18, tragically died after being knifed to the chest by a combat knife with 'severe' force outside the entrance to the Mill Gate shopping centre in Bury on March 11.
For the first time, the defendant, now 17, took to the stand to give evidence before a jury in court. The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, told jurors his "heart drops every time I think about what happened" - however maintained that the stabbing was an act of self-defence as he suspected Ahmed could've been armed and that he was not meant to seriously injure or kill him.
On the afternoon of March 11, Mr Ahmed, known as Abdul or Abdi to friends and family, had been punched in the face near a takeaway by a young man, said to be an acquaintance of his alleged killer. The trial previously heard Mr Ahmed and his elder brother had gone "in search of those responsible" prior to his death.

It was later that afternoon, at around 3.48pm that the deceased, who was unarmed, went to find those responsible and when he found them - a group which included the defendant - the deceased threw a punch towards the defendant.
Jurors were previously told that the teenage defendant received a caution in 2019 for carrying a knife in public and has "convictions for offences involving use of a knife in public places" in 2020. On Monday (August 8), the defendant admitted to the court to having carried knives in the past and having a "challenging" time growing up, that saw him excluded from his high school.

Mike Dean says Kanye West restarted work on ‘Ye’ just weeks before release
Mike Dean has opened up about Kanye West’s unpredictability in the studio, describing how just weeks before he was due to release 2018’s ‘Ye’, the rapper scrapped everything he and Dean had worked on.The anecdote was shared in a new episode of Nile Rodgers’ Apple Music 1 show Deep Hidden Meaning Radio. The pair spoke about how Dean is often recruited to recording sessions so he can “Mike Dean it up”, with Beyoncé being a key example of an artist who seeks the producer out for his idiosyncratic style.Dean explained that he’s not concerned with how much of that style an artist will opt of keep on a record’s final mix, saying: “They can take all that, or 50 per cent of it, or 80 per cent of it… I’ve got real thick skin, so it doesn’t bother me – it’s like, you know, whatever they like of what I did, they can use.”Agreeing with Rodgers’ notion that you can’t be “passionate about your part” as a producer, Dean continued: “Exactly – or you’d get your feelings hurt, like, every day.
