Police body camera footage taken moments after a 17-year-old was stabbed to death by his friend in a row over a drug deal gone wrong has been released for the first time. Joshua Molnar, 17, was caught on camera lying to police about how schoolmate and friend Yousef Makki, 17, came to be stabbed through the heart.
The video has never before been released to the public, and will be shown on Channel 4 on Monday night. In it Molnar, who was cleared of murder and manslaughter, claims Yousef was stabbed by 'a group of black guys' who were out to rob them, and Molnar says he tried to save his life.
He later told a court he stabbed Yousef, saying it was self defence, reports MEN. Molnar and Yousef were friends at Manchester Grammar School. But in the video he tells police they were not together at the time of the stabbing. He is captured telling an officer: "We've come sprinting over and the guy was just coughing up blood."
