Lesley Rose, Zasheem’s stepmother, told MyLondon : ‘Zasheem was one of five brothers, him being the second eldest at the young age of 19.
‘Nobody is perfect, we all make mistakes in life, but Zasheem was a good young man. He looked after his brothers, his mum, friends and anybody.
‘He had his whole life ahead of him, and as a family and a community we are broken.
‘There are no words that can explain the way we feel right now, we just want to thank everyone for their support at this time.’
