Two men have been charged with murder after a 24-year-old man was stabbed to death in a London Underground station last month.

Norman Bertran-Tavarez was injured during a fight between two groups of men at Elephant and Castle Underground station in south London just before 11.30pm on September 1.

Bertran-Tavarez died from his injuries in hospital and a 25-year-old man was seriously injured.

Jose Perez Fana, 30, and Kelvin Plata Fana, 22, both of Cowbridge Lane, Barking, have been charged with murder and GBH with intent.

British Transport Police said both men were extradited from Antwerp, Belgium, and are being held in police custody.

They will both appear at Westminster Magistrates’ Court on Friday morning.

After the fatal stabbing, London Mayor Sadiq Khan called Mr Bertran-Tavarez’s death “a senseless loss of a young life” and urged witnesses to contact police or Crimestoppers.
