A privately educated schoolboy in the UK was fatally stabbed by a friend after backing out of an attempt to rob a drug dealer, a court heard.

Yousef Makki, 17, suffered a single wound to his heart after the accused – identified as Boy A – allegedly turned on him.

Yousef ended up lying against a tree fatally injured while his two friends – both also aged 17 – are accused of lying to bystanders and police about what happened. They initially claimed an assailant in a passing car resembling the drug dealer’s carried out the attack. Boy B is accused of conspiracy to rob and perverting the course of justice, which he denies. He also admits possessing a flick knife.

Mr Johnson said that in the later confrontation, Boy A angrily took Boy B’s jacket as a ‘security’ until his bike was found – and then attacked Yousef in revenge before desperately trying to stop him bleeding to death.
