A teenager who repeatedly stabbed schoolgirl Elianne Andam in a row over a teddy bear has been found guilty of her murder.
Hassan Sentamu, then 17, attacked the 15-year-old outside a shopping centre in Croydon, south London, on 27 September 2023.
Sentamu, now 18, had already admitted manslaughter, claiming he was not in control of his actions because of his autism but the jury did not accept this defence of diminished responsibility.
The jury at the Old Bailey, which deliberated for 11 hours and 42 minutes, reached a 10-2 majority verdict.
