A young offender stabbed another teenager to death at a community centre with a 10-inch Rambo knife while on a knife awareness course, a court has heard. Michelle Nelson QC, prosecuting, said: 'There is a cruel irony in this case that Hakim Sillah was stabbed while he was attending a weapons awareness training course. Hakim Sillah, 18, pictured, was stabbed twice with a ten-inch blade while attending a knife awareness course in West London'The course was for young offenders, those aged under 18 with a previous offence related to weapons.' 'That defendant does not dispute killing Hakim Sillah, nor could he. 'The prosecution say the defendant took a deliberate decision to stab the deceased to the chest twice, we say, lawful self-defence does not arise.'
