Ryan then ended up in the middle of the fight. The footage shows Jhagra holding on to his knife as he watched the fight. Then suddenly, he runs in and attacks Ryan.
He stabbed Ryan three times, and Ryan sadly died at the scene. The footage then shows Jhagra running after Janis and pulling him to the ground.
Jhagra stabbed Janis five times, and he sadly later died in hospital. The end of the footage shows Jhagra running away from the scene.
Detective Chief Inspector Lee Townley, senior investigating officer, said: “This case lies bare the heart-breaking implications of knife crime, and whilst I am pleased that Jhagra will now face a lengthy time behind bars, there is nothing that will bring Ryan and Janis back.
“They were both young men, just starting their journey into adulthood, and all of that has been taken away from them in an instant. Within under two minutes of the fight beginning, Janis and Ryan had been fatally stabbed by Jhagra, and left dying in the street.
“We have released this footage today to show how quickly these incidents can escalate, with devastating consequences. My message today to those intent on carrying knives is clear – drop the knife before you do irreparable damage, and further lives are lost and ruined forever.”
