Isaiah, who was a twin himself, was knifed when violence flared on St Aiden’s Road, close to his home in Norfolk Park.

He suffered serious injuries to his arms during the attack and was taken to hospital for treatment but a slash wound to his wrist proved fatal.

The Mwanza brothers are currently remanded in custody.

Two other men, aged 20 and 22, who were also arrested over the stabbing, remain on bail.

Isaiah, who was a university student in Leeds, was killed in Sheffield on his Christmas break.
