The killer of Jimmy Mizen could be freed from prison by Christmas prompting fresh anguish for the family of the murdered schoolboy.
Jack Fahri, then 19, was sentenced to life after he threw a large glass dish that shattered, severing an artery in the 16-year-old's neck, at a bakery in Lee, south-east London in 2008.
The 36-year-old was released on licence in June 2023 following his 14-year term but was recalled in January 2025 after it was alleged that he recorded a video gloating about the murder.
The rapper, known as TEN, was masked in the video but a newspaper claimed the singer was Fahri. The lyrics, said to reference the murder of Jimmy, include the line: 'Watched him melt like Ben and Jerry's.'
After being recalled, Fahri's case was referred to the Parole Board and he has now been granted a parole hearing in December where a panel will decide whether or not he should be released.
