A Sittingbourne man arrested on suspicion of a double murder almost five years ago has been released on bail.
The 35-year-old was arrested on February 3, by Met Police officers investigating the murders of Jordan Jackson and Leyla Djemal-Northcott.
He was taken to a south London police station for questioning before being released on bail until May 5.
Jordan and Leyla were killed when masked men entered a flat in Menlo Gardens, London, on the morning of March 7, 2006, and fired at least six shots. Jordan’s brother Keiran Jackson, who was also at the flat, was shot but recovered.
Police believe Jordan and his brother may have been targeted by the men. Leyla is thought to be an innocent bystander and was murdered while she lay in bed.
The Metropolitan Police Service is offering a reward of up to £20,000 for information which leads to the arrest and conviction of the murderers.
A 37-year-old woman, arrested in Clapham, and 31-year-old woman, arrested in Croydon, on suspicion of conspiracy to murder have also been bailed until May 5.
