A jury at Sheffield Crown Court unanimously found Tinashe Kampira, 20, and a 19-year-old who cannot be named for legal reasons, guilty of his murder.

They were also convicted of possession of a firearm with intent to endanger life.

Khurm Javed was found with gunshot and stab wounds on Clough Road after being attacked next to a basketball court.

He was pronounced dead at the scene.

His family said after the verdict that they feel justice has been served.

In a statement they said: "Khurm was a much-loved husband, father, son, brother and friend.

"His untimely death has devastated us all and his presence and love can never be replaced. Those that knew Khurm will know this to be true.

"He stood for what is right and had an enormous sense of community and family."

The family thanked the witnesses in the trial for their bravery in giving evidence, the police and the jury.

They added: "Khurm will live on in our hearts forever and the verdicts delivered today go some way to help us process the events which took him from us."

Detective Chief Inspector Mick Hakin, who led the investigation, said: "The trial into Khurm's death has experienced significant challenges over an extended period of time, and despite this, Khurm's family have been exemplary in their patience and attitude in support of the investigation.

"Not only has Khurm very sadly lost his life as a result of this senseless act, but his family, including his wife and two children, have been left distraught and will have to live with the consequences of these men's actions for the rest of their lives."

Tinashe Kampira, the 19-year-old, Sohidul Mohamed and Saydul Mohammed will all be sentenced on 17 March.
