Four men and a youth are to stand trial at Hull Crown Court on June 7 next year accused of murdering Kian Tordoff who died from stab wounds in Bradford city centre.
They are Arbaz Khan, 21, and Aizaz Khan, 26, both of Yew Tree Avenue, Daisy Hill, Bradford; Amaad Shakiel, 20, of Leaventhorpe Lane, Bradford; Adam Qayum, 22, of Avenel Road, Allerton, Bradford; and a 16-year-old from Bradford who cannot be named because of his age.
All are jointly charged with murdering Mr Tordoff on Sunday, October 10, and attempting to murder Matthew Page, who is also known as Matthew Lowther, in John Street, Bradford, on the same date.
Mr Tordoff, 19, and Mr Lowther, also 19, were found by the police with stab injuries. Mr Tordoff was pronounced dead at the scene, while Mr Lowther was hospitalised.
Today, the four-week trial in Hull was fixed by the Recorder of Bradford, Judge Richard Mansell QC, after he was informed that the case could not be heard here before next September.
