No arrests for 12-and-a-half years since Sheffield murder trial collapsed and six men walked free

Safrajur Jahangir was shot dead at point blank range in August 2009 as he pulled up in Scraith Wood Drive, Shirecliffe, to deliver a takeaway order.

The owner of the Spice Hut on Middlewood Road, Hillsborough, was killed by a gunman said to have been lying in wait for the 23-year-old.

Police believe a bogus food order was placed to lure Safrajur, from Darnall, to the street where he was gunned down. The shooting was described at the time as an‘organised hit’.

Six men went on trial in 2010 accused of conspiracy to murder, with detectives believing they were all involved in a pre-planned plot to kill.

It was claimed that a hitman had been paid £15,000 to carry out the shooting but that he later died of a heroin overdose before he could be charged.

The police probe focused on a feud between two Asian families in Sheffield, believed to have been at the heart of the killing.

But the trial of the suspects accused of planning the murder collapsed in what was called a 'disaster for the criminal justice system'.

A seventh man, who was also charged over the murder but deemed unfit to stand trial, was also found not guilty.

The trial was halted when it emerged that South Yorkshire Police failed to disclose to the defence teams all the evidence gathered by the force during the investigation, which was said to have denied the defendants the right to a fair trial.

Nobody else has ever been arrested or charged.
