Summary
Two Glasgow teens, aged 16 and 17, walked free after a gripping trial for the murder of 15-year-old Amen Teklay, who died after being stabbed with a sword during a brutal attack on Clarendon Street. The prosecution claimed both teens, faces covered, assaulted Amen with a frying pan and sword — but the younger teen admitted to the stabbing, claiming self-defense. The older teen’s defense insisted he didn’t participate at all. After weighing evidence on provocation, joint intent, and self-defense, the jury acquitted both — delivering a verdict that closes a long, emotionally charged case and underscores the chilling reality of youth violence and legal ambiguity.
