Four men have denied murdering a 17-year-old boy who was stabbed in the chest in east London.

Godwin Lawson, from Enfield, north London, was attacked in Stamford Hill in March. He was studying at the Oxford United Football & Education Academy.

Moise Avorgah, 19, Daniel Riley, 22, Matthew Lanihun, 20, and Koffi Osimeh, 19, all from north London, pleaded not guilty to murder at the Old Bailey.

All four men, who appeared via a video-link, will face trial on 4 January.

Mr Avorgah, of Tottenham, Mr Riley, of Holloway, and Mr Lanihun and Mr Osimeh, both of Finsbury Park, also denied the attempted murders of two other men.
