Murdered Jimmy Mizen’s peace campaigner mum reveals reason she will NEVER meet his killer
THE peace campaigner mum of stabbed teenager Jimmy Mizen says she is not prepared to ever meet his murderer for fear he may insult her.
Thug Jake Fahri was returned to prison last week after an investigation by The Sun revealed he was boasting about his crimes in violent drill raps.
Jimmy’s mum Margaret, 72, previously told how she hoped Fahri would turn his life around while in jail.
But she told The Sun on Sunday: “I remember in the early days after we lost Jimmy, I used to think I’d love to speak to him. I’d love to know why he was this angry young man.
“I’ve often thought, if I had the chance, what would I ask him? But I think it’s probably best that we don’t meet because I’d be worried about what he would say to me.”
The Sun told how the lyrics of Fahri, 35, known as TEN, seemed to contain bloodthirsty references to the 2008 murder of Jimmy.
The 16-year-old was attacked at a bakery in Lee, South East London, by Fahri, then aged 19.
He hurled a Pyrex dish at Jimmy, severing an artery and killing him.
He pleaded not guilty to murder but was convicted after a two-week trial at the Old Bailey in 2009.
Fahri’s music was featured on BBC Radio 1Xtra after the Parole Board released him on licence in 2023 after serving 14 years of a life sentence.
Margaret, who set up The Mizen Foundation to encourage youngsters to be peacemakers in their communities instead of turning to crime, has called for drill rap lyrics to be censored.
She said: “I pray something happens, that this is all banned — but that’s probably expecting too much.”
