Four men and a 16-year-old boy have been charged following the fatal shooting of a man in Hackney.
Erdal Ozmen, 45, was killed on Dynevor Road in the early hours on Tuesday August 5, 2025.
Police were called at around 12.20am after reports of gunshots, and found Mr Ozmen. He was pronounced dead at the scene despite the best efforts of the emergency services.
At the time, Liza Dodds, 58, a youth worker who lives opposite Dynevor Road, told the BBC: "My husband woke up and said there was gunshots. The instant reaction was, 'How do you know?'
"We both got up and had a look. A police officer was doing CPR where the person fell. It seemed like they were going forever."
Five people were arrested on Wednesday July 1 in connection with the murder, and were charged on Thursday July 2.
Sebastian Baah Achemfour, 19, has been charged with murder and possession of a firearm, while Omar Mohammed, 22, has been charged with murder, possession of a firearm and perverting the course of justice.
Kalel Chen-Miller, 23, and Darian Thompson-Cox, 28, have both been charged with perverting the course of justice, as has a 16-year-old boy who cannot be named due to his age.
Mr Ozmen’s family continue to be supported by specialist officers.
