A teenager who repeatedly stabbed 15-year-old Elianne Andam in a row over a teddy bear has been ordered to spend at least 23 years in prison for her murder.
Hassan Sentamu, then 17, attacked the schoolgirl outside a shopping centre in Croydon, south London, in September 2023.
Giving him a life term at the Old Bailey, Mrs Justice Cheema-Grubb said: “The pain of her loss to her parents and younger brother is indescribable.”
