JAKE Fahri AKA Ten is a rapper who was jailed for the 2008 murder of a schoolboy named Jimmy Mizen. The rap-star is known for disguising his appearance with a balaclava and for bragging about his crimes his songs. On May 10, 2008, Fahri stabbed 16-year-old schoolboy Jimmy Mizen in a bakery, in Lee Green, London.
Jimmy was the child of practising Catholics Barry and Margaret Mizen and was known in the community for being an altar boy who stood at 6 feet and 4 inches in height. Fahri handed himself into the police, three days after the attack, and reportedly said: "Someone has died because of me. I didn't mean it, I didn't mean to kill him.".
He claims that he attacked Jimmy with an advertising sign, but, when the 16-year-old managed to get a hold of the sign, Fahri struck him with a glass dish. A shard from the dish severed several vital arteries, resulting in Jimmy's death. After their son's death, Barry and Margaret Mizen opened a cafe in Hither Green which was run by Jimmy's older brother.
The cafe is next-door to the Jimmy Mizen foundation which runs a variety of community projects in the area. Their work has earned Barry and Margaret an MBE and the pair have been recognised as among Britain's most influential Roman Catholics. Fahri was found guilty of Jimmy's murder and was handed a life sentence with a minimum of 14 years behind bars.
