Two men have been charged with murder of a man who was allegedly stabbed to death during a row with four men over a £120 debt.

Bright Osei, 21 and Nelphy Lelu, 22, both of North London, were arrested on March 31 for the murder of Ali Nasrollahi.

Nasrollahi, 22, was found collapsed on a residential street in Barnet, North London, on Tuesday afternoon (March 29).

According to a report in Daily Mail, one witness said he died in his girlfriend’s arms as she screamed ‘I love you’.

His distraught girlfriend called paramedics and police to the upmarket tree-lined suburban avenue, but nothing could be done to save Nasrollahi.

According to the report, he was described by cousin Mahbod Nasro as ‘inspirational’ for the way he ‘taught his little sister and brother the ways of studying’.

Nasro, 28, also claimed it was his cousin who was owed the debt and not the other way round.
