Overview
- Following Thursday’s jury verdicts at Winchester Crown Court, the judge on Friday jailed four associates, including 26 months for Isanah Sungum for organised‑crime activity and 52 months for Jean Mukuna for attempted kidnap.
- Arrone Mukuna received 16 months for attempted kidnap and is due for release because of time served, and Jude Hill was given 32 months for separate drug supply offences after being cleared of homicide.
- The same trial found Israel Augustus and Abdulrasheed Adedoja guilty of murder, convicted Paris Wilson and Ramarnee Bakas‑Sithole of manslaughter, and found Wilson, Jean Mukuna and Arrone Mukuna guilty of an earlier attempted kidnap after 40 hours and 45 minutes of jury deliberation.
- Sentencing for Augustus, Adedoja, Bakas‑Sithole and Wilson is set for June 8, which will conclude punishments for the fatal sulphuric‑acid attack carried out at Danny Cahalane’s Plymouth home on February 21, 2025.
- Prosecutors said the violence enforced a drugs debt of about £120,000 to a boss known as “Frost” (Ryan Kennedy), and Cahalane’s detailed hospital statements and extensive phone, digital and CCTV evidence underpinned the convictions as his family said the outcomes bring some justice but not their son back.
