Further four arrested in connection with Sheffield murder investigation of Kassim Mohammed
Police are investigating the murder of Kassim, who was shot dead in Sheffield nine months ago
Four people have been arrested this week as part of an ongoing investigation into the murder of Kassim Mohammed.
Kassim, aged 32, was fatally shot on Watery Street in Sheffield on Tuesday 30 September 2025 just after 10pm.
Three women, aged 24, 26, and 30 and a 49-year-old man arrested on suspicion of assisting offenders. They have all been bailed pending further enquiries.
In the months that followed, police have been pursuing different lines of enquiry - with as many as 15 people being arrested so far, including four this week.
A statement from South Yorkshire police says: “Between Tuesday 12 and Friday 15 May, three women aged 24, 26, and 30, and a 49-year-old man were arrested on suspicion of assisting offenders. They have all been bailed pending further enquiries.
Detective Chief Inspector Andy Knowles said: "We have now made 15 arrests in our investigation into the tragic circumstances of Kassim's death.
"We will continue to seek answers and justice for Kassim's loved ones, and our thoughts remain with them during this extremely difficult time."
Kassim family said last year his death would "leave a void in our hearts that will never be filled".
"Kassim was a devoted young father, a loving son, and a kind, family-orientated man, whose caring nature touched everyone around him," they said.
Detectives are continuing to appeal for anyone who may have information to come forward. Those wishing to provide anything can contact the 101, quoting incident number 1026 of 30 September 2025.
