A SOMALIAN man accused of murdering his flatmate with an axe has appeared in court.
Ahmed Ali, aged 35, is alleged to have killed fellow Somalian Abdullah Barre Jama at their flat in Chiswell Square, Kidbrooke, in May last year.
Ali appeared at the Old Bailey today (May 20) and was remanded in custody to re-appear on July 5.
He has yet to enter a plea.
A post-mortem examination found 49-year-old Mr Jama died from head injuries.
It is believed his body had lain undiscovered in the flat for several days.
