Two UK-based Nigerians, others jailed for murder involving fake Rolex watches (Video)

Two Nigerians, Temidayo Awe and Ikem Affia have been found guilty of manslaughter for their involvement in the murder of Saul Murray in Luton, UK.

One of the Nigerians arrested, Awe a third-year undergraduate student at Coventry University, was involved in the death of a father of six over his fancy watches.

Murray was killed in a honeytrap robbery after Awe and three others plotted to drug and rob him due to the Rolex watches he had been seen wearing on Instagram which turned out to be fake.

She was captured on CCTV leaving Murray’s flat, where he had been with two others, one of whom, Ikem Affia, was carrying a knife. Murray died from stab wounds.

Detectives investigating the murder identified Affia as the main suspect responsible for Murray’s death after hours of reviewing CCTV footage. Two others, Cleon Brown and Surpreet Dhillon, were also arrested and sentenced for their roles in the killing.

Judge Michael Simon told the sentencing hearing at Luton Crown Court that it was a “senseless” conspiracy to rob. As a result of the trial, the four were given the following sentences:

“Ikem Affia, 31, of Shore Place, London was sentenced to life in prison for murder and will have to serve a minimum of 25 years. He was also sentenced to 14 years for conspiracy to commit robbery to run concurrently.

“Cleon Brown, 29, of King Edwards Road, South Hackney was sentenced to 11 years for manslaughter and nine years for conspiracy to commit robbery to run concurrently; a total of 11 years.

“Surpreet Dhillon, 36, of Carnarvon Road, London was sentenced to 10 years for manslaughter and 10 years for conspiracy to commit robbery to run concurrently; a total of 10 years.

“Temidayo Awe, 21, of Saunders Street, Gillingham was sentenced to seven years for manslaughter and six years for conspiracy to commit robbery to run concurrently; a total of seven years.”
