Michael Williams and Philip Allman secure Attempted Murder convictions
Michael Williams, leading Philip Allman, has successfully prosecuted a seven-week trial at the Central Criminal Court. Six defendants were variously convicted of attempted murder, wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm and violent disorder.
The charges arose from a violent attack upon a teenager in Canning Town in March 2025. The victim was chased by a group of heavily armed males before being struck in the head with a Zombie knife, which caused a significant brain injury. The victim was then stabbed three more times, one of which caused a penetrating injury to his lung. Remarkably the victim survived the attack.
