dwa czarnuchy Danny and Rickie Preddie zabily czarnucha

Brothers guilty of Damilola death
The Preddie brothers were 12 and 13 at the time
Two teenage brothers have been found guilty of killing schoolboy Damilola Taylor nearly six years ago.
Danny and Rickie Preddie, aged 18 and 19, of Peckham, London, were convicted at the Old Bailey of manslaughter.

Damilola, 10, bled to death after being cut with a broken bottle in south London. The inquiry into his death has led to three trials and cost £16m.

His parents said it was a great comfort justice had finally been done. "We pray his gentle soul can now rest in peace."
The Preddie brothers will be sentenced at a later date.
You are corrupt... you are nothing
Rickie Preddie to the jury

Preddie brothers profile
Nigerian-born Damilola was found bleeding from a leg wound in a stairwell on a housing estate in Peckham in November 2000.

It is thought he was attacked as he made his way home from an after-school club and was jabbed with a broken beer bottle in his thigh.

The long investigation included a much-criticised trial of four other youths in 2002 - all of whom were cleared.

Earlier this year the Preddie brothers and a third defendant, Hassan Jihad, 20, went on trial for murder after new forensic evidence, apparently missed during the first investigation, was found.
I am dismayed that the evidence was not found sooner

Mr Jihad was cleared of all charges, the Preddies were cleared of murder and assault but the jury failed to reach verdicts on the manslaughter charge.

Damilola's parents Gloria and Richard Taylor, who have sat through all three trials, watched calmly as jurors on Wednesday found the Preddies guilty of manslaughter.

But as the verdicts were read out, Rickie Preddie started shouting at the jury: "You are corrupt. You are nothing."
He was eventually taken out of court on the order of the judge.

The brothers, 12 and 13 at the time, were arrested a few days after Damilola was killed but were released without charge.
One was being monitored by the probation service and the other was on bail and detained at a children's home.

They were re-arrested last year when the blood and fibres from Damilola were found on their clothing.
The jury heard they had convictions for robbery, some at knifepoint, and witnesses claimed the brothers had confessed to the killing.
A friend of Damilola told police he thought Danny Preddie may have come off worse in a fight with Damilola, who had broken his gold chain.

It is thought Damilola was surrounded by a gang of youths in Blakes Road, Peckham, and stabbed in his left thigh.
By the time he limped along the road and up two flights of a filthy stairwell, he was near death.

Commander Dave Johnston, of the Metropolitan Police, said the case had sent "shockwaves throughout London and beyond" and paid tribute to the courage and dignity of the Taylors.

It is a great comfort that justice has finally been done for Damilola

Richard Taylor

Six-year trail to conviction

He defended the estimated £16m cost of all three trials saying: "We believe that the money is well spent to bring justice in this very important case."

On the subject of the missed forensic evidence he added: "I am dismayed that the evidence was not found sooner and of course that will be a matter of ongoing investigation."

Lawyer Tony Connell, of the Crown Prosecution Service, also paid tribute to the Taylor family. He said: "They have borne the dreadful suffering since the death of this fine young man with immense strength and we have all been grateful for their support throughout this case."

Speaking outside court, Damilola's father Richard said: "Nobody can ever return our son to us, but it is a great comfort that justice has finally been done for Damilola."

Local MP Harriet Harman added: "The whole community will be relieved to know that justice has finally been done."

Man is held over boy street death

Robert Spence died from a single stab wound to the heart

A 27-year-old man has been arrested in connection with the death of a 17-year-old boy in a suspected street fight in Reading.

Robert Spence, of Burghfield Common, Berkshire, died in hospital on Friday. Police believe two gangs were involved.

Post-mortem tests revealed Robert died from a single stab wound to the heart. Two other men remain in hospital.

A 27-year-old, of High Wycombe, Bucks, was held on Monday. Police are urging potential witnesses to come forward.

Det Ch Insp Stan Gilmour, of Thames Valley Police, said: "Although we have made an arrest our investigation is still at an early stage and we continue to appeal for witnesses."

On Monday Robert's mother, Sandra Blake, paid tribute to her "hard-working" son, who she called Junior.

She said: "He was a hard-working boy, very helpful and always smiling.

"He wasn't a trouble-maker. He was well-mannered and respectful to others."

Life sentences for boy's killers
The gang ran off laughing after stabbing Kodjo

Two teenagers found guilty of murdering 16-year-old schoolboy Kodjo Yenga have been given life sentences.

Kodjo was stabbed in the heart in March 2007 after being ambushed by a gang, including two girls, armed with knives and bats in Hammersmith, west London.
Tirrell Davis, 17, from Shepherd's Bush, west London, and Brandon Richmond, 14, from Hammersmith, were ordered to serve a minimum of 15 years.
Three other youths were given 10-year custodial sentences for manslaughter.
Michael Williams, 14, from West Kensington, west London, Jamel Bridgeman, 15, from Shepherd's Bush, and Kurtis Yemoh, 17, also from Shepherd's Bush, were all convicted of manslaughter.
It emerged that the Yemoh was in court just hours before Kodjo's death.
Kodjo Yenga's mother says she feels 'extremely sorry' for her son's killers
Despite objections from the police, he had been given bail by magistrates after he was arrested for the theft of a bicycle and for intimidating a witness.
The court heard that Kodjo went into the area after being challenged to a fight by one youth and was then ambushed by others.
He had said to the youth with the knife: "Do you think you are a big boy because you have a knife to me?"
He was told: "I don't care. I want you to respect me," the court heard.
I was screaming, 'Please don't stab him, please don't stab him

Kodjo's girlfriend
As passers-by tried to help, the gang, some of them in their school uniforms, ran away laughing.
The teenager was left dying in his 15-year-old girlfriend's arms.
She told the court as she was held around the neck by one boy who threatened to stab her, others attacked Kodjo after he tripped over while trying to get away.
She said: "I was screaming, 'Please don't stab him, please don't stab him'."
Speaking outside the court on behalf of Kodjo's mother Ladjua Lesele, Cllr Marianne Alapini said: "I would call upon all young people to stop using weapons, to avoid being in a gang, and to stop all violent acts.
Kodjo Yenga was attacked by a gang armed with bats, knives and a dog
"Instead, I implore you all, please, please focus on your education, contribute positively to your community, and most importantly, do the things that will make your family and parents proud of you."

Det Supt Matthew Horne said: "Some of the boys were only 13 when they committed these crimes - children, only just teenagers.
"To their parents I would ask them this: what were your kids doing? Where did you think they were at the times these boys were so brutally killed?
"That's a message to all of us who are parents, we have to take some responsibility to ensure our children are brought up as honest and decent human beings."
The family have announced plans to launch the Kodjo Yenga Trust and Foundation to help disadvantaged young people go to university.
The trust will be launched with a concert in Kensington & Chelsea on Kodjo's birthday, 30 July.

Crime's growing perception gap
By Chris Summers
BBC News
The government has unveiled a £3m advertising campaign against knife crime, using graphic images of real injuries inflicted amid growing fears about the problem and a spate of recent deaths of young people.
Some 15 teenagers have been killed in London this year alone
"There are three kinds of lies - lies, damned lies and statistics."

Cynics will have Benjamin Disraeli's words in mind when they read the figures presented to the Metropolitan Police Authority's (MPA) annual general meeting (AGM).

According to the statistics, knife crimes fell by 15.5%, from 11,986 to 10,131 between 2006/07 and 2007/08.

Detection rates for knife crime rose from 22.9% to 24.5% and for homicides from 85.8% to 95%.

Yet politics is all about perception and Ken Livingstone was turfed out of the mayor's office recently partly because his opponent, Boris Johnson, tapped into a perception that violent crime was getting worse.

This was further emphasised by an excerpt from the MPA's youth scrutiny process - a survey of young people in London - which found the media were partly to blame by reinforcing negative stereotypes.

The report said: "A balanced portrayal of young people that includes their civic engagement and positive activities in the press is needed to address intergenerational tensions."

A quote from Lewisham Youth Offending Team puts it more succinctly: "If you closed down the Evening Standard tomorrow the fear of crime would plummet."

Sir Ian Blair said 200 weapons had been recovered in the last few weeks
Tackling crime can be a surprisingly bureaucratic task.
It is not all about car chases, dawn raids and high profile court cases.
They are the sharp end of crime fighting.
Behind the scenes, there are hours of exhausting and, at times, mind-bendingly tedious bureaucracy.

The MPA - the watchdog to which Scotland Yard is ultimately accountable - has spawned a series of committees, working parties and focus groups.

Every police operation needs to have its official blessing and, more importantly, its agreement on funding.
For example Operation Blunt 2, the Met's latest anti-knife crime initiative, is estimated to be costing £1m.

Where does that money come from?
In a report, Deputy Assistant Commissioner Rose Fitzpatrick writes: "The corporate tasking budget will be augmented by £1m, specifically for this activity to reduce serious youth violence.

"Should the operational response in future be required to exceed existing budgets any request for additional resources will be subject to the normal decision-making processes."

So there you have it.
But behind all the figures and the red tape are real police officers, real criminals and real victims.

One of those was Peter Woodhams, a 22-year-old satellite engineer, who lived with his girlfriend and three-year-old son on a housing estate in Canning Town, east London.

In January 2006 he was slashed across the face by a gang of youths after confronting them when they threw stones at his car.

The police failed to investigate the assault properly and seven months later Mr Woodhams was shot dead by a teenager, Bradley Tucker, outside his home.

Tucker was one of the suspects for the 2006 assault, whose names had been suggested to the Woodhams family.

After a damning report by the Independent Police Complaints Commission (IPCC), two officers were required to resign - but they were later reinstated after an internal review by Assistant Commissioner Tarique Ghaffur.
Mr Woodhams's father, Peter, appeared at the MPA's AGM on Thursday and urged them to review the decision to reinstate the officers.
For all they say about crime going down and things getting better we do not see a change out on the streets

Peter Woodhams senior
Mr Woodhams told the MPA: "Unfortunately as neither you nor the IPCC will challenge [Assistant Commissioner] Ghaffur's decision we, a bereaved family who not only have to deal with our loss and the catastrophic failings of the Met and in particular these two officers, were then let down again by the Met policing themselves, now we have to bear the responsibility of fighting this."

The commissioner, Sir Ian Blair, apologised to the Woodhams family for the failings of the original investigation, but assured them the Met did not have a culture of "looking after our own" and had instituted new disciplinary procedures, which involved an independent panel.

But outside the meeting Mr Woodhams said Sir Ian and the MPA had only paid "lip service" to their concerns.
He said the police's failure to tackle the anti-social behaviour of the youths who hassled his son was not an "isolated case".

"For all they say about crime going down and things getting better we do not see a change out on the streets," he added.
His comments perfectly captured the growing gap between facts and perception.

Drug dealer dies after shooting
Police have stepped up patrols in the area since the killing
A teenage drug dealer has died four days after being shot in the head in north London.

Sharmaarke Hassan, 17, was found with a gunshot wound in Gilbeys Yard, Camden, at about 2300 BST on Saturday.

The teenager from Camden, who had drugs convictions, died in hospital from his injuries on Wednesday night. A post mortem examination will be held later.

The 17-year-old is the 15th teenager to be killed in London since the start of the year.

Police have said they are keeping an open mind about the motive for the killing but believe he was a member of The Money Squad, one of a number of Somali gangs in the area.

He was also found guilty of possessing cannabis and offering to supply the drugs last month, the Crown Prosecution Service said.

The murder is being investigated by the Metropolitan Police's Operation Trident unit, which looks at gun crime in London's Afro-Caribbean communities.
Supt Paul Morris, from Camden Police, said: "This is a shocking tragedy.
"We have stepped up patrols in the borough to reassure the community and specialist officers are investigating the incident."

Family's tribute to park teenager

Samreen Aslem speaks about her "loving and special" brother Amar
The family of a teenager found dead in a West Yorkshire park have paid tribute to him at the place where he died.
Amar Aslam, who was 17, suffered head injuries in an attack in Crow Nest Park in Dewsbury on Sunday night.
His family said Amar's mother, Reanna, was "heartbroken" and was considering leaving the country.
A 20-year-old man and three boys aged 15, who are charged with Amar's murder, were remanded in custody by magistrates in Dewsbury on Thursday.
They are also charged with robbery and will next appear at Leeds Crown Court on 5 June.

Lives 'meaningless'
Amar's sister Samreen wept as she said her "loving and special" brother had got his driving licence two days earlier.
Samreen, her younger sister Zarieh and their cousin Raja Majid laid a large bouquet of flowers in the walled garden where Amar was found at the weekend.
Amar Aslam, 17, was found dead in a walled garden at the park
Reading out a statement to reporters, Samreen described how her brother loved music and cars and was saving his pocket money to buy himself a vehicle.
She said he was "excited and so happy" about getting his licence.
She added: "Amar was a loving and special brother. He was the baby of the family, he was very close to his sisters and his mother.
"He was so caring and sensitive, he would always look after us like a mature older brother."
She said: "Our loving baby brother has gone forever and our lives are painful and meaningless."
Ms Aslam said Amar's nickname was Moon because "he lit up the whole family".
She said: "Our Moon may have gone and without any doubt he will be missed but will never be forgotten. May he rest in peace in heaven."
Mr Majid read out a statement on behalf of Amar's mother.
He said: "My Moon has gone, he has made my life darker forever, he has left me heartbroken."

Dewsbury Teen Murder Victim Named
By Sky News SkyNews -
Monday, May 26 11:38 pmA teenager whose badly beaten body was found in a park in West Yorkshire has been named as 17-year-old Amar Aslam.

Sky News correspondent Mike McCarthy said
two youths aged 15 and a man, 20, all of Asian origin, were being questioned as part of the murder inquiry.
Amar's body was found in a walled garden at Crow Nest Park in Dewsbury and a post mortem has revealed he died of head injuries.
Det Supt Chris Thompson told Sky News he was anxious to "speak to anyone in the park between 2pm and 8pm last night".
McCarthy said police have called the crime "brutal and sustained" but were unclear on motives.
Detectives fear Amar may have been the victim of violence between warring gangs of youths who waged running battles in the park the day before.
It follows the deaths at the weekend of two other people.

On Saturday night, Harry Potter actor Robert Knox was stabbed outside a pub in Sidcup, Kent,

Alan Riddock, 41, died after sustaining knife and head wounds in an attack outside the Park House pub in the Bedminster area of Bristol.

Another man, aged 38, was taken to the Bristol Royal Infirmary with a stab wound and broken jaw. Three people have been arrested.

In another attack, a teenager has been left in a critical condition after being stabbed near East Ham Tube Station in East London shortly before 9:30pm on Sunday night.

Reporting from the scene, Sky News crime correspondent Mark White said "it is believed there were other people involved in the incident".
Two teenagers are also in a critical condition after separate gun attacks in North London in the past two days.

On Saturday, a 17-year-old was found shot in the head in Camden.

A day earlier, another 17-year-old boy was shot in the stomach in Archway, North London.

Petrified 14-year-old 'ran pleading for help before gang killed him'

The Standard's Beat Knife Crime charter
Girl, 14, stabbed to death

A terrified 14-year-old killed in a London knife attack begged a bystander for help as he f led from a mob of teenagers, the Old Bailey heard today.

Witness Tom Morgan told the court how stab victim Martin Dinnegan ran past him pleading: "Please help me."

MrMorgan said he saw the petrified boy hold his hands out in an attempt to placate one of his pursuers but Martin was felled by a punch to the head.

His attacker then pinned him to the ground and made repeated stabbing motions towards his back, the court heard.

Mr Morgan and his girlfriend rang 999 and, in a tape recording played to the jury, told the operator: "There is a white guy and a massive group of black guys who are kicking the crap out of him."

Two men and two youths have pleaded not guilty to the murder of Martin in Holloway in June last year.

Aftab Jafferjee QC, prosecuting, has told the jury how Martin was beaten to the ground and stabbed in Tollington Way "in a case that moved from dirty looks to death within an hour".

Mr Morgan gave evidence today from behind screens to shield his face from the dock and the public gallery.

He told how he and his girlfriend had been on their way to get a DVD from a rental store when the boy he later recognised as Martin, wearing a grey tracksuit and hood, ran towards them.

"He was very white faced, he was sprinting towards us and shouted: 'Help me, please help me,'" Mr Morgan said.

"He ran past us on the road to my left then a guy with a black tracksuit went past on a large-framed BMX. He was cycling after the victim and was the distance of one parked car away from us.

"He was very dark skinned although I was unable to see his face as he was wearing a black hooded jumper with the hood pulled up.

"He dropped the bike when he got alongside-the victim. Martin stood still and put his hands up as if to placate the cyclist. Martin appeared scared, very scared.

"The effect on the cyclist was almost nothing whatsoever and the next thing was that a large haymaker came from his right fist. It was a right hook and the blow connected with Martin's head or neck."

At this point Mr Morgan's attention was distracted by another youth sprinting up and shouting, the court heard.

"I looked back up the road and Martin was on the floor now," Mr Morgan said. "It looked as if the first assailant was leaning on top of Martin who was on his back and side facing away from us.

"The first assailant was leaning with all his weight on Martin's shoulder and upper arm pressing him to the floor so that Martin seemed to be pinned to the floor. Then I saw what seemed to be a stabbing motion rather than a punching motion four or five times in very rapid succession."

Mr Morgan explained that he had not seen a knife but, as he was experienced in martial arts and disarming those armed with knives, he could identify the difference between a punching and stabbing action, which he demonstrated to the jury.

He then told how a crowd of up to 20 people aged "between 10 and 20" started "laying into" Martin.

Mr Morgan rang 999 at 8.38pm, telling the operator that it looked as though one of the attackers had a knife.

Martin, a pupil at St Aloysius College in Archway, died at the scene.

Rene John-Baptiste, 21, of Plaistow, Sean Clark, 19, of Holloway, and a 16-yearold from Finsbury Park and a 17-year-old from Holloway, who cannot be named because of their ages, have all pleaded not guilty to murder.

The case continues.[/img]

Man In Custody Over Schoolgirl Stabbing
Updated:23:58, Monday June 02, 2008

A man in his 30s is being questioned by police after a 15-year-old girl was found brutally stabbed to death in the lift of a block of flats near London's Waterloo station.

Police at Matheson Lang GardensThe young teenager, who was dressed in her school uniform, had been the victim of an attack so ferocious that the handle of the knife used to kill her had broken off.

She suffered at least 10 stab wounds to her front, neck and back.

Her lifeless body was discovered at Matheson Lang Gardens on Baylis Road in Southwark by a woman who was getting into the lift with her child.

A man in his 30s has been arrested on suspicion of the girl's murder.

A police spokesman said: "We are keeping an open mind about motive at this early stage. However, it is not believed to be gang related."

Reporting from the scene, Sky's crime correspondent Martin Brunt said: "This is one of the areas that has recently been targeted by police in an anti-knife campaign.

"The Metropolitan police has upped its presence and brought in knife arches and weapon wands.

"But the last couple of hours suggests their efforts to tackle knife crime have not so far been working."

Girl was stabbed in lift of tower blockThe London Ambulance Service was called at 3:45pm and sent a fast response car, an ambulance and an air ambulance, the first of which arrived in under four minutes.

"Sadly, despite extensive efforts to resuscitate the patient, she was pronounced dead at the scene," a spokesman said.

The victim's next of kin have since been informed.

Neighbour Sharon Moore said: "You think you are fine once you are in the building, this is the last thing you expect... I'm extremely shocked because once I'm in the door and I get in I think I am safe."

She said residents in the flats were given security fobs on Friday as part of measures to tighten up security.

"I feel very insecure and afraid for my children and for the other children in the block," she added.

The girl is the 16th teenager to be killed violently in London so far this year.

Neighbours said they believed the girl was Somalian and a pupil at the Harris Academy in Bermondsey, south-east London.

Most of the young victims of gun and knife crime in the capital have been boys or young men.

Two men have been found guilty of murdering a 15-year-old boy who was shot dead as he slept at his home in south-east London.

Michael Dosunmu was shot four times when gunmen burst into the family home in Peckham in February 2007.

The Old Bailey heard that Michael was mistaken for his older brother who was to be killed in revenge for a murder.

Mohammed Sannoh, 19, from Peckham, and Abdi Omar Noor, 22, from Camberwell, south-east London, had denied murder.

They were remanded in custody for sentencing on Wednesday.
Michael was asleep in the bedroom he shared with his brother Hakeem, when Sanoh and Noor burst in and fired a MAC-10 machine pistol.
He was hit by four bullets - one of them piercing his heart and killing him.
Michael Dosunmu's mother on the verdict
Jonathan Laidlaw QC, prosecuting, said: "The intruders turned the light on and opened fire with a MAC-10 at a figure lying wrapped in a duvet.
"That person had no chance of surviving. He had done nothing wrong.
"It was a well-planned and well-executed execution. Over and above the shocking nature of this shooting, the tragedy is that these two defendants killed the wrong person."
The court heard that Michael's older brother Hakeem, 26, had been out at a club where he was trying to sell drugs when his church-going brother was killed.
It was Hakeem Dosunmu's links to a robbery gang and the murder of one of their members, that led the gunmen to the family home, jurors heard
Following the last robbery, three days earlier, one of the robbers, Javarie Crighton, was stabbed to death after confronting organiser Orando Madden about money.
Madden had surrendered to police after the incident and left only Hakeem Dosunmu as the target for revenge, said Mr Laidlaw. There were rumours that Madden had cheated the rest of the gang and that Hakeem Dosunmu had the money, he added. ........

Teen arrested over south London stabbing of 14-year-old boyBy Charlotte Gill
Last updated at 7:45 PM on 19th June 2008
A 16-year-old boy has been arrested in connection with the stabbing of a 14-year-old boy in south London on Tuesday.
The 14-year-old, who has not been named, is fighting for his life in hospital after he was stabbed in front of drinkers outside a London pub.
The schoolboy was treated by passers-by and remains in a critical condition.
After he was knifed in the chest, he collapsed outside the pub where customers thought he was having an epileptic fit.
But as blood poured from his wounds, they realised the victim, who is of Caribbean origin, had been stabbed.
Three or four black youths were seen fleeing the scene in Southwark, south London, after the attack on Tuesday.
A 16-year-old youth was arrested earlier today and remains in police custody at a south London police station.
The incident is believed to have followed a row among teenagers on an astroturf football pitch in a nearby park.
A Met Police spokesman said: 'It is believed the victim was involved in an altercation with a number of youths.'
Eddie Suleyman, 32, chef at the Roebuck pub who saw the boy collapsed on the ground, said: 'It was horrific - everyone was shocked.
'At one stage there were two girls treating the poor boy. One was beside him crying and the other was trying to stem the blood from his wounds.
'At first we thought it was an epileptic fit because we didn't notice any blood to start with and he just kind of toppled over.
'A girl stopped to try and help him. Then more and more people were running around to help.
'When one girl turned around and was crying, because she realised what had happened, we realised as well.

'About 25 people were around the boy by the time the air ambulance showed up so it was hard to see exactly what was going on and I couldn't see just how much blood there was.
'But when he was lifted into the back of the ambulances you could see there was blood everywhere. It was awful.'
He is the latest victim of a knife crimewave in the capital.
A total of 16 teenagers have been murdered in London in 2008, while 27 teens were killed there in 2007.

Dauda was arrested five weeks after the murder in east London
A man faces life in prison after being found guilty of murdering an A-level student in east London in a "reckless and violent" act.

Stephen Boachie, 17, suffered a 14cm (5,5ins) stab wound to his heart in an attack outside a pub in Barking, on 1 January 2007, the Old Bailey heard.
Chester Dauda, a 21-year-old Nigerian immigrant from Plaistow, east London, was convicted of his murder.
Dauda will appear in court later this month for sentencing.
Det Insp Tim Wilkinson said: "Dauda's reckless and violent actions resulted in the senseless killing of Stephen Boachie, a 17-year-old boy with his whole life ahead of him."
On the night he was killed, Stephen had just left the Thatched House pub where he had celebrated the New Year, then later hugged a girl who had been in a car with Dauda.
A "scuffle" broke out between Stephen and Dauda before the knife was produced, said Mark Ellison QC, prosecuting.
"Clearly angered by what had happened, the defendant went back to the car, and then returned to Stephen Boachie and stabbed him twice in the upper body."
He died despite the efforts of a doctor to perform open heart surgery in the garage forecourt where he collapsed.
When Dauda was arrested five weeks later, he initially said he had not been at the pub and spent the evening visiting a mosque and then a friend's house.
Later he admitted being outside the pub and said: "The boy in the hood tried to steal from my pockets so I pushed him back and punched him."
Stephen was the first of three teenage murder victims last year who went to Kingsford Community School in Beckton, east London.
The others were 14-year-old Paul Erhahon and Adam Regis, 15.
The killings are not believed to be linked.

Two brothers who beat, kicked and hit a 17-year-old student to death with a dog chain have been jailed for life.

Larry, 23, and Michael Morrison, 21, both of Victoria Docks, east London, were each ordered by the Old Bailey judge to serve a minimum of 12 years.
A police inquiry began into claims that three jurors were allegedly intimidated while deliberating on the verdict.
The brothers stopped beating Bienda, who had passed out, and left him bleeding when a bus driver stopped them and hooted his horn.
The judge told the pair that although their intention was not to kill the youth they "were older and more mature and should have dealt with it (the row) in a different way".
The 17-year-old student was beaten till he passed out.
"No sentence deals with the loss undoubtedly suffered by family and friends," he added.
The brothers were convicted by a 10-2 majority.
The court heard that three jury members were allegedly approached by members of the public gallery at St Paul's Tube station.
Police have seized CCTV footage from the station and will be talking to the jurors.
A note from the jury read: "They adjusted their pace to come closer to us. We deliberately went to a different escalator to avoid interaction.
"On the way down one of the group made an indirect comment which included the phrase 'hope you can sleep at night'. It was clearly directed at our group."
Another time during the trial the judge said that security had confiscated a knife from a person in the public gallery.

Dying teenager called for mother
A teenager called for his mother as he lay dying after being stabbed in a street in south London.

Shakilus Townsend, 16, from Deptford, south-east London, was found with multiple knife wounds in Beulah Crescent, Thornton Heath, on Thursday.
He died in a hospital shortly after midnight.
He is the 18th teenager to be killed in London this year.
The building's residents said the youth called for his "mum" and said "I don't want to die" as they tried to save him.
Police said he was attacked shortly after 1400 BST on Thursday. No suspects have yet been arrested.
People living close to the scene described how they tried desperately to save Shakilus.
Dee Bamina, 35, tried to stem the bleeding from a wound to his chest with a bath towel after another neighbour brought him into the communal doorway of her block of flats.
"I think a group of boys must have been after the boy," she said.
"All I heard was them saying 'get him from the other side'."
Ms Bamina saw a gang of four or five youths, aged 15 to 19, with scarves covering their faces. One had a baseball bat.
Neighbour Richard Higgins, 17, said he saw the weapon that was used.
"It was a big kitchen knife, maybe 18in," he said.
"He had stab wounds on his stomach and one big long wound on his chest."
Tributes for Shakilus appeared on the online memorial site Gone Too Soon.
A contributor Chanel wrote: "Why oh why... it honestly brings tears to my eyes to read stories like this"; a tribute from Fiona said: "Such a waste.. May you rest in peace, xxx".
Shakilus was attacked four days after 16-year-old Ben Kinsella was knifed to death in Islington, north London. Three teenagers were appearing in court on Friday charged with his murder.

Later the same day, the bodies of French students Laurent Bonomo and Gabriel Ferez, both 23, were found riddled with knife wounds after a flat fire in New Cross, south east London.

Tunisian national Hamouda Bessaad, 34, was stabbed to death on Old Kent Road, south-east London, on Monday, while Dee Willis, 28, died after a knife attack in Peckham a day later.
Earlier this week Metropolitan Police Commissioner Sir Ian Blair and mayor Boris Johnson pledged to continue the struggle to persuade youngsters to stop carrying weapons.

Knife prosecution age limit cut

Anyone aged 16 or over in England and Wales who carries a knife could be taken to court, under new guidelines for police and prosecutors.

The change follows a meeting between Gordon Brown, police and legal chiefs, to extend the "presumption of prosecution" in knife cases.

Previous police guidance was to prosecute adults caught with a knife, but to caution those under 18.
Previously, the "presumption of prosecution" had applied only to those aged over 18 who carry a knife without good reason.
Police used their discretion over whether to caution a 16- or 17-year-old by considering aggravating factors, such as whether the person is under the influence of drink or drugs.

Someone confronts you, you can't back down, you can't lose status. And before you know it you're sucked in
Mr Brown said: "We want people to understand, particularly parents, that when children and young people are carrying knives, they are putting other children and young people at risk."
"What we are proposing is that if people are carrying a knife and are prosecuted for other offences, they will be prosecuted for the knife too.
"It has become fashionable [to carry a knife]. What we want people to understand is they put themselves at risk carrying these sorts of weapons."

He said: "But the point at which they now would consider this individual has no previous conviction, there are no aggravating factors, that he or she might be subject to a caution, we are now saying no, that is now removed.

"We are not out to criminalise people who have a good reason for being in possession of a knife, but frankly what good reasons would a youngster have for even carrying a penknife?"

Gordon Brown on knife crime
Police in areas suffering from knife crime will receive £5 million to help fund greater use of searches, courses for young people caught with knives and home visits and letters to parents.

Victims younger
Metropolitan Police figures show that the number of victims of knife crime have been going down.
In the year to March 2008, there were 10,220 such crimes, compared with 12,124 for the previous year - a reduction of 15.7%.
But the number of 11 to 18-year-olds attacked with knives between April and July 2006 rose by 4.5% compared with the same period in 2005.
Last year 27 teenagers in London met violent deaths, compared with 17 in 2006 and 15 in 2005.

Mother devastated by son's death
The mother of a teenager stabbed to death after a row over a water fight has spoken of the "senseless and meaningless loss."
Frederick Moody Boateng, 18, was killed near his home in Lambeth, south London, on 17 July.
His mother Mary Moody, spoke as about 300 people gathered for a vigil at the scene of the murder on Guildford Road.
A man was arrested on Tuesday in connection with his death and continues to be questioned by police.
A 16-year-old who was arrested on the night of the incident has been released on bail until mid-August.
A line of water guns were left on Guildford Road along with more than 50 bunches of flowers and notes from friends.
Ms Moody said he was a much-loved son who "filled our lives with cheerfulness, laughter and joy".
"We are extremely devastated by this tragic, senseless and meaningless loss at the tender age of 18," she added.
"We draw strength from the love and care he lavished on us. We take courage from the memories of a good man who stood out for his good character."
We as a society have to rally against knife and gun crime
Church ministers from across south London attended the vigil and several of them called for an end to knife crime.
One said: "We as a society have to rally against knife and gun crime. Our young people must stop taking the law into their own hands."
The family led the mourners on an "anti-knife crime march" in memory of Mr Moody Boateng.
Many of them donned orange T-shirts for the third-of-a-mile (480 metres) walk, to Stockwell Tube station and back, as it was the teenager's favourite colour.
Two of his college friends held up a large banner, with the words: "In memory of Freddie! Please stop the knife crime."
Mr Moody Boateng, a former business student at Kingston College, became the 21st teenager to die in violent circumstances in London this year.

Teenager dies in stabbing attack
The stabbing is the latest in a spate of violent teenage deaths
A teenager has died after being stabbed in south London.
The 18-year-old was found with a stab wound to the abdomen by police called to reports of an assault in Guildford Road, Stockwell, on Thursday.
Police believe the victim was attacked by up to eight males who were described as wearing hooded tops and had bikes. The victim died in hospital later.
A 16-year-old boy was arrested earlier in connection with the stabbing and is being questioned by detectives.
Police said he was arrested at his home in Brixton, south London.
A crime scene cordon was set up following the attack, which took place at about 1915 BST.
One of our neighbours came and knocked on our door and told our son there was a body lying on the street
Early on Friday officers were carrying out a forensic examination of a green Peugeot parked in Guildford Road.
Keith Bayley, who lives opposite where the victim was found, said he had seen the teenager lying in a pool of blood.
He said: "One of our neighbours came and knocked on our door and told our son there was a body lying on the street.
"There were a lot of paramedics trying to revive him. He was there for about 20 minutes, then they took him away in an ambulance.
"Until then he was just lying there on the road, fighting for his life."
Mr Bayley said the stabbing had changed how he and his family felt about the area.
"It changes everything round here. My 14-year-old son has asked to be picked up from school tonight. It just changes everything," he said.
A teenage friend of the victim, who gave her name as Natasha, said she had known him for five years and described him as "tall, slim and good looking".
"He always stayed out of trouble, he was a sweet kid and actually quite quiet.
"It has been horrifying hearing the news this morning. As soon as I heard I knew it was going to be someone I knew."
Edward Skurfield, 19, who lives in Guildford Road said: "I have lived here for three years and my friend has lived here for 11 years and we have not heard of any knife crime in that time in this area.
"It is so upsetting because people keep dying."
The 18-year-old is the 21st teenager to suffer a violent death in London this year.
Roman Catholics will be gathering for an all-day vigil at Westminster Cathedral on Friday where they will pray for an end to knife and gun crime in the city.
Organiser Nick Black said it was a way of bringing people together.
"There are a lot of people out there like me who don't really know what to do about this and there is a level of fear and intimidation on the streets with people nervous about approaching anybody
