Girl,18 jailed 14yrs for luring 17yr old boy to his death(Photos)

 A teenage girl who lured a bright student to his death at the hands of three knife-wielding boys has been sentenced to 18 years imprisonment.
Sanaa Ibrahim, 18, laid a trap for 17-year-old Jeremie Malenge after they travelled back to London together from Swindon by train.

She arranged for Tariq Williams-Dawodu, 17, Tre Morgan, 18, and a 14-year-old who cannot be named, to lay in wait outside Hackney Central station, preparing to ambush him when he arrived.
The straight A student escaped the initial attack, but Ibrahim helped them to hunt Malenge through the streets of east London.She watched as they pounced from a taxi and brutally stabbed him to death.

Ibrahim claimed she was a victim, unaware of the killers’ intentions, but phone records showed she had secretly been in phone contact with the boys before and after the murder.
She sobbed at her sentencing today at the Old Bailey.

Judge Zoe Smith told her:

‘You could have prevented this attack. You could have told Jeremie Malenge not to go to the Kingsmead estate and could have warned your companions of the intended attack.
“You did not and that shows you to be entirely without conscience.”

The judge told the killers: “The three of you subjected him to a merciless and ferocious attack.
He was stabbed a number of times and dies from a stab that went through the right side of his chest and into the heart with a knife with a blade of at least 12.5cm long.

“The horror of that attack we have observed from the CCTV footage.
“It was fast and furious and we can see long blades glinting in the street lighting.”

In a statement read in court, the victim’s father, Abubaker Malenge, who brought his son to Britain from the Democratic Republic of Congo in 2004, said the killers had broken his family’s hearts.

“As Jeremie’s dad I feel that there is a massive whole in my heart since my lovely son was sadly murdered. I will never forget the death of my son,” he said.
He added: ‘In my opinion the way the people killed Jeremie is the same as the atrocities of the innocent people in Somalia, Nigeria and Syria.
“I brought Jeremy to the UK for a better life and now he has been murdered on the streets of London.“I have heard the evidence and believe it was a planned attack. All I want is justice for Jeremie.”

A jury of seven women and five men took just two hours to convict Ibrahim and the two boys of Malenge’s murder.
Ibrahim is to serve at least 14 years in detention. Morgan, who was banned from entering Hackney after being released from custody for another stabbing, was sentenced to 16 years.
Williams-Dawodu, on bail for a previous stab attack at the time, was sentenced to 18 and a half years, with a two-year concurrent sentence for the first stabbing.
The 14-year-old was sentenced to 12 years detention.
The judge added:

“Jeremie Malenge was but 17 years of age when he was brutally cut down.
“It is doubtful that any of you knew him prior to this incident and your attack on him was completely unprovoked.”

The judge told Williams-Dawodu:

‘You planned and organised this attack with the help of Ms Ibrahim.
“You recruited your fellow co-defendants to help you and took with you to the scene a massive knife and planned to make your attack in a public place.”
