Victoria Osoteku was only 18 when she joined a 20-strong mob who hunted down and hacked to death 15-year-old schoolboy Sofyen Belamouadden at the busy London train station, in March 2010.
 Sofyen Belamouadden was punched, kicked and stabbed to death in a ‘brutal and merciless murder’ planned on Facebook after a feud between pupils from two rival schools erupted into violence.

Victoria was the one who bought the knife that was used to stab Sofyen, and she was also captured on CCTV kicking Sofyen in the head before running off, leaving him to bleed to death.
