Three men have been charged with the murder of a 38-year-old whose two brothers had already died in violent circumstances.

David Bello-Monerville was fatally stabbed in Barnet, north London, on 18 June. The murder charges are the latest development in a case being investigated by detectives from the Metropolitan police’s homicide and major crime command.

The three charged men who appeared at Willesden magistrates court on Tuesday were Nathan Harewood, 27, of Friern Barnet, north London; Khalil Rehman, 26, of Barnet; and Francis Appiagyei, 27, of no fixed address.

All three have also been charged with two counts of grievous bodily harm, and have previously been charged with aggravated burglary.

Bello-Monerville’s brother Joseph Burke-Monerville was shot in 2013, aged 19, in a case of mistaken identity. Their eldest brother, Trevor Monerville, was stabbed to death in 1994, aged 26. No one has been convicted of either killing.
