A TEENAGER has admitted that she lied to police in an interview following the murder of a father of two in Basingstoke, a court heard.

On Monday, November 14, a 17-year-old girl gave evidence in the trial of three men accused of killing a man in his home in Musgrave Close, Brighton Hill.

Ismaila Kamarra-Jarra, of Milton Close, Basingstoke; Je Daine Carty, 18, of Ferndown Close, Basingstoke; and Cohan Daley, 18, whose address cannot be given for legal reasons, have all been charged with the murder of Frantisek Olah on Sunday, May 22.

Mr Olah, 31, was found with serious injuries in Musgrave Close, Brighton Hill. He was later pronounced dead.

A post mortem recorded that he had suffered stab wounds.

Kaysha Saunders, 18, from Highfield Chase, Basingstoke, and Kelsea Byrne, 18, from Warwick Road, Basingstoke, and Abbie Mills, 18, from Woburn Gardens, Basingstoke have been charged with assisting an offender. 

As previously reported, the three men allegedly "fled the immediate scene of the murder" with the help of 'their girlfriends' Saunders and Byrne. While Carty and Kamarra-Jarra fled to Oxford, Daley was later arrested in Southampton.

The jury at Winchester Crown Court heard from the teenage girl who met with two of the men in Oxford - Carty who she knew as Slim and Kamarra-Jarra who she knew as IK – and went to Costa and the restaurant Wendy’s.

The court heard that it is believed that she was in a "casual relationship" with IK at the time of the incident.

During the evidence, prosecutor Sarah Jones KC said that in a previous police interview on June 28 the teenager had said that Kamarra-Jarra had joked about killing someone and stabbing them in the chest by "twisting the knife" but "didn't mean to kill him".

When asked about the conversation whilst on the witness stand, the girl said that the conversation did not happen.

She continued: “They never told me that they did anything. I never had any type of conversation with them about a murder.”

The teenager said she was angry with Kamarra-Jarra after finding out he had "another girlfriend" so wanted to "put words in his mouth".

The 17-year-old also told the court that while in Wendy's the men were making jokes.

Reading the teenager's police interview Ms Jones said: "They were properly saying stuff and saying he could not breathe and that was at Wendy's wasn't it, who was it who made those jokes?"

The teenager confirmed that one of the men made the jokes but could not remember who or what it was about.

Ms Jones continued: "So one of them was making jokes about the fact that he could not breathe." The teenager agreed.

The court also heard that, the teenager said in her police interview that Carty took a call from a woman who said "you have killed my baby dad".

Laurie Anne Power KC, defending Carty, added: "The truth is that you gave an account to the best of your belief at the time and it was for some reason after that you have changed your account to try and help IK. That is the truth."

Ms Power asked the teenager if someone had contacted her to get her to change her account but the teenager answered no.

The trial continues.
