Aman was jailed for life at the Old Bailey for murdering a homosexual he met in a pub.

Brian Blacklin, 45, of Newcastle upon Tyne, told the court he strangled Patrick McMahon, 67, in July after being invited back to his flat in west London and propositioned. Three days later, Blacklin, who was in London looking for work, took two acquaintances to the flat to prove that he had killed someone.
