Police Set Up Email To Trace Killer
Detectives hunting the murderer of a student killed after DJ-ing at a Kennington nightclub have set up a special email address appealing for information.
The mailbox: carlsappeal@met.police.uk will be publicised on the social media website Facebook by friends and family of 19-year-old Carl Beatson Asiedu, known as Charmz, who died after being stabbed near Club Life nightclub in Goding Street, in the early hours of last Saturday morning (1 August).
Officers will also distribute posters at the scene appealing for information to Carl's murder and the attack on his friend one week on from the incident this Saturday (8 August).
DI Chris Le Pere, of the Homicide and Serious Crime Command (HSCC), who is leading the murder investigation, said: "We would ask anyone who knows anything about what happened to Carl or his friend to please contact us.
"We've set up this special email address so that people who might not feel comfortable ringing us, can still have the chance to pass on any vital information they may have which could help us catch Carl's killer.
"Officers will be at the scene this Friday from 11pm to 7am Saturday handing out posters and talking to clubbers, residents and anyone else in the area."
Police discovered Carl when they stopped three cars seen running a red traffic light in Baylis Road, Waterloo, just after 5am last Saturday. Carl, of Norbury, south London, was in one of the vehicles and had been stabbed.
London Ambulance Service and the air ambulance attended, but Carl was pronounced dead at the scene.
At around the same time as Carl was discovered, a friend of his, also aged 19, was discovered in Goding Street, with stab wounds. He was taken to a south London hospital, where he was treated and discharged.
Anyone with information can also call the incident room on 020 8721 4005 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
