A 15-year-old boy who murdered Leeds teenager Alfie Lewis in a knife attack on his way home from school has been detained for life with a minimum term of 13 years.
Alfie, also 15, died in hospital after being stabbed in the heart in Church Road, Horsforth, in November 2023.
Bardia Shojaeifard, who can now be named after reporting restrictions were lifted, pushed Alfie to the ground before he stabbed him twice "in full view" of a group of school children.
Bardia, who was 14 at the time of the killing, was convicted of murder in May following a two-week trial at Leeds Crown Court.
