FIBRES from a Teesside pensioner's sweater were found on the clothing of two men accused of murdering him, a court heard yesterday.
A forensic expert told Teesside Crown Court that fibres from 68-year-old Mohammed Sharif's sweater were also discovered in the homes in Stamford Street, Middlesbrough, of Mark Graham, 23, and Stephen Ham, 31, and his former partner Pamela Wilkinson, 24.
They and Jonathan Embleton, 25, of no fixed address, all deny murdering Mr Sharif, who was battered to death at his home in Garnet Street, Middlesbrough, in April last year.
The trial continues.
