Man dies in hospital following stabbing in Forest Gate

A murder investigation has been launched following the death of a man who was stabbed in Forest Gate on August 10.

Police were called to reports of an incident in Romford Road, near the junction with Woodgrange Road.

Officers and London Ambulance Service attended and found 38-year-old Saley Beya (pictured) suffering stab injuries.

Mr Beya was taken to hospital for treatment but died as a result of his injuries on Thursday. His family is being supported by specially trained officers.

A 28-year-old man has appeared in court charged with section 18 GBH. The Crown Prosecution Service has been asked to amend the indictment.

Detective chief inspector Kelly Allen said: “We still need people with information to come forward and tell us what they know about this tragic incident.

“Our enquiries have established that there was traffic in Romford Road, including two buses, and people would have seen these events unfold. There was also a car which had to stop in the road as the attack took place.

“I would urge anyone who saw this incident, or anyone who took images or footage of the attack, to get in contact immediately.”

Saley’s family said: “We are deeply heartbroken at our beloved Saley’s passing. Saley was a father to four amazing children who love and miss him very much. He was also a cherished brother to four siblings and a much loved son, uncle and friend to many.

“Whilst we understand the difficulty and fear surrounding speaking out against others in such circumstances, we call upon the morality and goodwill of the public to please come forward at this time, if you have any information that may assist the police in bringing justice for Saley’s murder.

“If you know anything at all, no matter how small or irrelevant you feel it may be, please contact them.”

Detectives continue to appeal for witnesses and information about the incident. If you can assist, call 101 or ‘X’ @MetCC and quote CAD1103/10Aug.
