Court told that teenager was attacked with a knife on the bus going home

A 14-year-old boy was fatally stabbed 27 times on a London bus while walking home from school by two men both armed with “long knives”, a court has heard.
Two teenage boys, aged 15 and 16, have been charged with the murder of Kylian Bokassa.
Both defendants were remanded in custody after appearing at the Old Bailey.
A plea hearing was scheduled for April 14 and a hearing in the same court was tentatively scheduled for October 13.
The 15-year-old boy first appeared via videolink from Feltham Young Offender Institution and spoke only to confirm his identity.
Later, the 16-year-old boy appeared in the dock and confirmed his identity.
Judge Lucroft confirmed the case timetable and remanded him in custody as well.
The victim’s family members remained seated in the court for the brief hearing.
Kellyanne was attacked on a London bus while walking home from school in Woolwich, south-east London, on 7 January.
Police were called at around 14:30 GMT to reports of a stabbing on a Route 472 bus on Woolwich Church Street.
Prosecutor Tom Little Casey told an earlier hearing that the victim was sitting in the back seat of the bus when two men armed with “long weapons” attacked him.
Despite the efforts of the bus driver, passengers and attending paramedics to save his life, Kelian was pronounced dead shortly after the attack.
