Nineteen year old Kazeem Kolawale has been sentenced to life in prison for the part he played in a gang shooting last year in South London which left five year old Thusha Kamaleswaran paralysed.
Kazeem along with 2 other gang members from the ‘Organized Criminals Gang” cycled to a wine store in Stockwell with the intention of killing another gangster Roshawn Bryan who is a member of rival gang “All Bout Money”. In the ensuing pursuit and shoot out, 2 innocent victims were hit – five year old Thusha who now has to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair and thirty five year old Roshan Selvakumar who was shot in the face and still has bullet fragments lodged in his skull.
The three gang members were found guilty in an Old Bailey Court last month of causing grievous bodily harm with intent to the girl and Selvakumar, plus the attempted murder of rival gang member Roshaun Bryan.
During the trial it was revealed that all three boys should have been in jail long before the tragic incident.
Nathaniel Grant (the actual shooter), known as ‘Killa Buzz’, was cleared of an almost identical gangland murder and released from prison just weeks earlier; Anthony McCalla was on bail over a vicious bus brawl and probation staff considered recalling him to prison hours before Thusha was shot while Kazeem Kolawole had recently been spared prison for beating a schoolgirl and was wearing an electronic tag while on bail for carrying a knife.
Grant will spend a minimum of 17 years before he is eligible for parole while McCalla and Kolawole will spend a minimum of 14 years before being eligible for parole.
They should rot!
