A ‘cowardly’ knifeman has been jailed for life for the brutal murder of a university student. Badri Issa, 22, was stabbed to death in the street by Raami Mohamed.
Mr Issa, who hoped to become a mechanical engineer, was heading to the gym with his pal Omar Jeylaani when Mohamed gestured to his friend to pull over in Moss Side.
Manchester Crown Court heard Mohamed and Jeylaani had previously been in a dispute over a car. After stopping their vehicles, the pair became involved in a stand-off.
