The youth who imported the knife used to kill Yousef Makki deleted 47 items from his own iPhone after the fatal stabbing, a new inquest into the death was told.
Adam Chowdhary was said to have deleted material before police seized his device after Yousef, a bright Manchester Grammar School pupil from a humble background in Burnage, was fatally stabbed by their friend Joshua Molnar in 2019.
