THE mother of an aspiring lawyer who was stabbed to death said that dealing with the Metropolitan Police was “harder than getting someone convicted in The Hague.”

Sven Badzak, 22, and a 16-year-old friend were attacked by a group of six young men as they walked in Kilburn, north-west London, on February 6 2021.

Mr Badzak was repeatedly stabbed after falling to the ground, while his friend suffered multiple stab injuries.
