He subsequently stabbed Mr Aman through his clothes, penetrating his heart, the court heard. Mr Aman was heard by a neighbour to say, "I think I've been stabbed."

Mr Edwards said Mr Aman did not know the boys: "He was simply in the wrong place at the wrong time". The court heard they tried to stop the bleeding under instruction from 999 call-handlers.
