Two teenagers who were charged in connection with a stabbing in Downley that left a man seriously injured, appeared in court on Friday.

Hamza Hussain, 19, of Gibbs Close, High Wycombe and a 17-year-old who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared at Aylesbury Crown Court for a plea and case management hearing on November 27.

Hussain is charged with one count of section 18 – wounding, one count of possession of a controlled drug of class B, cannabis, and one count of escape from lawful custody.

The 17-year-old is charged on suspicion of grievous bodily harm in connection with the incident, which left a 24-year-old man with serious injuries.

The pair have not entered a plea and have been placed on the warned list, to appear again in the week commencing December 14.
