THREE men have been charged with the murder of Sellathurai Easwaran, 40, (pictured) in East Ham on Saturday.
They are also accused of robbing the 40-year-old father of four in Barking Road in the early hours.
Giovanni Castro, 19, of Keppel Road, East Ham, Daniel Torres, 19, of Percy Road, Canning Town and Christian Bustillos, 22, of Khartoum Road, Plaistow, will appear at Stratford Magistrates’ Court later today, Friday.
Mr Easwaran died at his home in St Winefride’s Avenue, Manor Park, the day after he was found by police lying on the pavement with a head injury. He was taken to Newham General Hospital but returned home later the same morning.
* A fourth man, aged 19, has also been arrested. He is bailed to return to a police station in the New Year pending further inquiries.
