Two men have appeared before a judge at the Old Bailey accused of murdering a 21-year-old film student on Primrose Hill, north London.

Finbar Sullivan was attacked and stabbed at the view point after visiting the the beauty spot with a friend on the evening of 7 April. He was treated by paramedics but died at the scene.

Alexis Bidace, 25, of Fore Street, Tottenham, and Ernest Boateng, 25, of Keswick Drive, Enfield, were arrested on 13 April and have since been charged with murder.

The pair have been remanded in custody and a trial date has been set for April next year.

Another man, Oliuwadamilola Ogunyankinnu, 27, of Southbury Road, Enfield, is also charged with murder and appeared at the Old Bailey earlier this week.

A judge ordered all three to appear for a plea hearing at the same court on 1 July.

A fourth man, Khalid Abdulqadir, 18, of Fellows Road, Camden, is charged with grievous bodily harm, violent disorder and possession of a knife.

Sullivan, known as Fin by his friends, was studying at the London Screen Academy.

His father Christopher Sullivan has said he was "broken-hearted" by his son's death.
