Family of stabbing victim call on young people not to carry knives

More than one hundred people turned out on Sunday night to remember a 20-year-old from Cardiff who was fatally stabbed in Liverpool.

Fatah Warsame died on May 6 while on a night out in the city centre. A keen footballer who had grown up in the Grangetown area of the city, he was described as being 'always loyal to his friends', who turned out in huge numbers to remember 'genuine and fearless' young man they lost.

Fatah's brother, sister and nephews hosted an Iftar, or breaking of the fast, to raise money for charity and warn young people of the dangers of carrying knives.

Money raised from the event will go towards a well in Somaliland, near the village where Fatah was born, and where his parents still live. His family in Cardiff are aiming to raise five thousand pounds in his memory.

Merseyside Police says a 24-year-old man arrested on suspicion of murder has been released under investigation. Four others arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender have also been released under investigation.
