Jurors in the trial of two teenagers accused of murdering 15-year-old Amen Teklay in a sword attack in Glasgow have retired to continue their deliberations for a second day.
Amen was found seriously injured on Clarendon Street, Maryhill, on the evening of March 5 last year and died at the scene.
Two teenagers aged 16 and 17, who cannot be named due to their age, are on trial at the High Court in Glasgow accused of murdering the 15-year-old in a sword attack.
The murder charge alleges that the two teenage boys, with their faces masked, assaulted Amen and brandished a frying pan and a sword or similar instrument at him at Glenfarg Street and Clarendon Street on March 5 last year.
It is alleged that the pair chased Amen and struck him on the body with the sword, leaving him so severely injured that he died.
The two boys deny the charge and the 16-year-old has lodged a special defence of self-defence.
The jury began its deliberations on Friday before pausing over the weekend.
On Monday judge Lord Colbeck sent it out again to continue deliberations.
