The two teenage suspects about to go on trial for the murder of 17-year-old boy will reveal their pleas later this week.

Elijah Dornelly died in hospital after being stabbed in Walthamstow High Street late on Sunday, May 7.

He was walking home with a friend from an anti-knife rally before his attackers pounced on him and made off on bicycles.

Ezra Abeka, 18, and a 17-year-old boy stand charged with his murder, and both will give their pleas at the Old Bailey on Friday.

A provisional trial date has been set for November 6.
