A 20-year-old man who was stabbed to death in an East Ham park has been named by police as Moosakhan Nasiri.
Detectives were called to Plashet Park at 4.07pm on Sunday, October 15 where they found Moosakhan with a stab wound to his chest.
He was pronounced dead at the scene despite paramedics’ best efforts to save his life.
A post-mortem held two days later gave the cause of death as a stab wound to the heart.
A 16-year-old boy has since been charged with Moosakhan’s murder. He appeared at Barkingside Youth Court last Wednesday.
