In a new report by BBC, investigators from the Metropolitan police arrested five men between the ages of 18 and 24, a 16-year-old boy, and a 35-year-old woman, on suspicion of being involved in the murder.
Speaking on the development, Wayne Jolley, a detective chief inspector who leads the investigation, says: “This is a significant development in the investigation, however, we will not be complacent.
“We will continue to work hard to make sure those responsible are brought to justice. I believe this murder to have been a case of mistaken identity, perpetrated recklessly, and with no regard whatsoever for human life.
“Alexander’s death is a tragic reminder that carrying a gun has devastating consequences, I urge anyone with information to come forward and speak with us.”
The reports said all the suspects have been taken into custody while a white Range Rover believed to be linked to the shooting was found burnt 25 minutes after the police were called.
It is indeed a trying period for the family members of Khafi Kareem.
The BBNaija star together with her siblings and mother finally said the last goodbye to the youngest member of their family, Alexander Kareem.
During the funeral service which took place on Thursday, July 29, the bubbly young lady rendered a touching tribute in honour of her deceased younger brother.
