Brit banking executive, 30, is jailed for 15 years for killing teen in horrific broken bottle attack in Lisbon
A British banking executive, Daniel Dunbar, has been sentenced to 15 years in prison for murdering a 19-year-old named Daniel Galhanas during a violent street attack in Lisbon. The incident occurred on October 14, 2023, when Dunbar and his group clashed with locals after witnessing a fight. Dunbar used a broken bottle to strike Galhanas, causing fatal injuries to his neck. During the trial, Dunbar claimed self-defense, arguing he believed one of his friends had been attacked. However, Judge Armandina Silva Lopes rejected this claim, stating Dunbar acted with 'clear and reckless indifference' and showed 'no hesitation' in attacking. The court also ordered Dunbar to pay £200,000 in compensation to the victim's family. Although Dunbar faces potential appeal, the sentencing reflects the severity of the crime and the rejection of his defense.

Derek Boyd, a 31-year-old man from north-west Dublin, was found guilty of murdering Mark Carroll during a violent altercation at Boyd's home on June 9, 2024. Boyd was already serving a suspended sentence for the manslaughter of his sister, and the court ruled that this meant he would now face a life sentence in prison. The incident occurred after a late-night argument involving Boyd, Carroll, and their partners. During the fight, Boyd stabbed Carroll multiple times, leading to his death. Boyd also faced charges of assaulting Carroll's girlfriend, Megan Rock, though the jury could not reach a verdict on these additional charges. Boyd's girlfriend, Chantelle Harcourt, was charged with obstructing justice by allegedly interfering with Boyd's prosecution.

CCTV footage and a phone recording show Vickrum Digwa, who murdered 18-year-old Henry Nowak in December 2025, telling his mother Kiran Kaur to remove the murder weapon from the scene. Kaur was sentenced to three years in prison for helping her son hide evidence. Digwa received a life sentence with a minimum term of 21 years for the killing, which occurred after he falsely accused Nowak of racial abuse. The court emphasized that Kaur's failure to challenge her son's actions contributed to the cover-up and worsened the victim's treatment during arrest. Nowak's family expressed continued disappointment and called for further investigation into the circumstances surrounding his death.
