Man accused of Defoe killing
Christopher Farley, of Kingswood Road, Leytonstone, east London, is said to have punched 26-year-old Jade Defoe.
Jade, a popular rapper on the “grime” music scene, died in hospital from a head injury a few days after the alleged attack in Leytonstone in April.
His half-brother Jermain plays for Tottenham Hotspur.
Farley was remanded in custody yesterday for a plea and case management hearing due to be held on September 1.
