A man accused of fatally stabbing Real Milan footballer 'Izzy' Mohammed in Slough's Salt Hill Park was selling drugs in a nearby alleyway minutes later a jury heard on Wednesday.

Oladapo Obadare, 25, has pleaded not guilty to murdering Mr Mohammed who died three weeks after being stabbed last July 10.

John Price, prosecuting, said that Obadare returned from Salt Hill Park straight after the stabbing. He then kept an appointment he had made to sell drugs to a customer in an alleyway near Salt Hill Mansions where he lived at the time.

Mr Price said: "Within minutes of the stabbing it was still business as usual for Mr Obadare."

Obadare's co-defendants Ryan Fuller-Bent, 20 and Ricky Champion Musaba, 21, of Rolt Street, Lewisham are also charged with murder.

The three have also pleaded not guilty to a charge of wounding another man who was at the scene.

Mr Price told the jury they had chased the man through Salt Hill Park after Mr Mohammed was stabbed.

He fell and was also stabbed, although he has since made a full recovery.

Mr Price painted a dramatic picture of a violent social 'underbelly'.

He told the jury that all three defendants were seen at a party at the flat in Salt Hill Mansions where Obadare was living, admiring a flick knife which was being handed round only two days before the fatal attack.

Obadare also faces a charge of intimidating a witness, after making a threatening phone call from prison.
