A Kent man is one of six people to be charged with murder after the death of a teenager nearly five years ago.

Divon Henry-Campbell, of West Street, Gravesend, appeared at Bromley Magistrates' Court on Friday after Michael Jonas, 17, was attacked and fatally stabbed in Betts Park, Penge, back in 2017.

Henry-Campbell, 22, was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey later today.

Ryan Brown, 20, from Croydon, Jamie Marshall, 21, from Penge, Sorraviho Smith, 22, Jason Smith, 19 and Nyron Jean-Baptiste were also charged with the murder of the young boy.

Brown is set to appear at the Old Bailey today, while Marshall is penned in to appear at Truro Crown Court.

Sorraviho and Jason Smith, alongside Jean-Baptiste, are all set to appear at Bromley Magistrates' Court tomorrow.

The charges follow an investigation by homicide detectives from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command.
