Mehretab Zemicael has been sentenced to life in prison. He is to serve a minimum of 15 years.

Zemicael was found guilty in February this year of the murder of Gary Brisco from Rochdale in June 2013.

Gary was living in London at the time of his death.

Joan Brisco, Gary’s Mum said: “I am glad that he got the sentence he did but it will never bring my son back. I can now start to get some closure on everything and start to move on. I have to for the sake of my son.

"I have to thank everybody for their support as well because my friends and family have been great.”
