LONDON: Two men have been arrested following the fatal stabbing of a Saudi student in the English city of Cambridge on Friday night.
Police were called to the Mill Park area of the city at 11:27 p.m. on Aug. 1 following reports of violence.
20-year-old Mohammed Al-Qasim was found with serious injuries and was pronounced dead at 12:01 a.m. on Saturday, despite the best effort of paramedics on the scene, a Cambridgeshire Police statement said.
A 21-year-old man from Cambridge has been arrested on suspicion of murder, while a 50-year-old man, also from Cambridge, has been arrested on suspicion of assisting an offender and both remain in police custody, the statement added.
“We would like to thank the public for their support and assistance following our appeal,” said Detective Inspector Dale Mepstead from the Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire Major Crime Unit.
