Detectives are offering a £10,000 reward for information which leads to the arrest of a teenager suspected of killing a 16-year-old boy at a party in Woodford.

Munashe Charles Kutyauripo, known as Charlie, was stabbed to death outside a female friend's 16th birthday party at a social club on playing fields in the town.

Scotland Yard have named Aaron Alexander Tavares-Gaiete, also 16, as a prime suspect and are appealing for help to track him down.

Speaking for the first time about the murder, Charlie's brother, Dennis (pictured, above), 21, said the family had been left broken by his death: "Charlie was someone I turned to all the time.

"The situation breaks you every time and we really cannot move forward at the moment."

Aaron ran away from the social club and was seen in Snakes Lane East, Woodford. He was last spotted in Stratford, the day after the murder.

Officers have launched a manhunt for Aaron, who is black, 5ft 10in and of slim build with facial hair. He was last seen wearing a dark hooded jacket with a yellow motif on the left sleeve, dark coloured trousers and trainers. He was also carrying a distinctive black "man bag" with a white Nike logo.

Four people have been arrested and bailed in connection with the investigation.

Anyone with any information should contact police on 101 or call Crimestoppers, anonymously, on 0800 555 111.
