A thug who stabbed a teenager to death boasted of the killing in an Instagram post sent from behind bars.
On May 17 last year Mohammed Amir Hussain, 17, and Oscar Ingram, 21, murdered 16-year-old Ozell Pemberton in Sutton Coldfield, North Warwickshire.
Both were found guilty and locked up on life sentences.
A year into his 16 year sentence Hussain was caught boasting about the bloody murder in a shameless Instagram post, Birmingham Mail reported.
The topless teen is pictured posing against a graffitied door, his hand in a gun sign.
A caption below reads: "I took a mans shadow dats a life on da wing! #SoonHome"
The post had been liked by more than 130 people before it was taken down after Birmingham Mail reporters alerted the Prison Service.
A source who brought the post to light said: "I think it’s appalling that prisoners can get access to mobile phones in prison and post things on social media without fear of being caught.
"This person, as you can see from the caption underneath, is bragging about taking a young person's life which he calls “shadow” as if it was nothing.
"I feel more should be done within the prison service to stop this happening.
"It’s disgusting.
"This poor lad's parents don’t get the opportunity to speak to their son after he was so cruelly taken by this sick individual, yet he can communicate freely with the outside world."
Prisoners are forbidden from having mobile phones under UK law.
A Prison Service spokesperson said: “We do not tolerate the use of mobile phones in our prisons and we have since had the account removed and will punish those responsible.”
Hussain and Ingram were locked up after they attacked Ozell by a bus stop outside a McDonald's.
Hussain stabbed him in the chest and then fled, leaving the teenager to collapse and die in front of a distraught group of friends.
Following the stabbing, Hussain appeared to admit that he had killed Ozell to various people.
A jury at Birmingham Crown Court took just over six hours to find both Ingram and Hussain guilty of murder.
