Shakeil Thibou, 20, had attempted to stab intended victim Adjei Isaac when he instead knifed the mum in the groin after she was knocked to the ground.

Adjei had managed to survive by just “centimetres” after moving his body away from the zombie knife.

Cher was rushed to hospital but sadly couldn't be saved and died six days later.

Shakeil has now been found guilty of murder following a trial.

His brothers Sheldon Thibou, 25, and Shaeim Thibou, 22, also stood trial over their alleged roles in the fight.

Prosecutor Edward Brown KC said the “truly shocking” violence erupted at around 5.48pm on August 25 last year.

The defendants and two men began fighting – causing the crowd to part and a officer, PC Oliver Mort, to intervene.

Sheldon Thibou, who was holding a stun gun, attacked the officer with Shaeim, it was said.

Meanwhile, Shakeil Thibou thrust a “huge” knife repeatedly towards Adjei's stomach – only missing him because the victim moved back.

Mr Brown said: “You will see that Cher Maximen had been knocked to the ground in the immediate events as Adjei Isaac recoiled from Shakeil Thibou’s knife.

“In his efforts to save himself from the knife attack, he had come into contact with Cher.

“It is clear that she had simply got caught up in the events.”

The heard after she was knocked over, Cher attempted to pull herself up using Shakeil Thibou’s coat.

She then tried to “strike out” at Shakeil, who raised the zombie knife and “deliberately thrust it towards her, stabbing her in the groin”.

He then fled the scene with his brothers as Cher fell injured to the ground.

Shakeil, of Hammersmith, denied murder, attempted murder and having an offensive weapon.

Sheldon, of Fulham, and Shaeim, of West Kensington, pleaded not guilty to violent disorder and assault on an emergency worker.

The thug will be sentenced at a later date.
