A self-proclaimed ‘monster’ who attacked a top chef near the Notting Hill Carnival will spend at least 18 years in jail for his murder.

31-year-old Omar Wilson repeatedly punched and kicked Mussie Imnetu last August.

He died in hospital 4 days later.

Wilson claimed he’d acted in self-defence but the judge said he ‘could have walked away’ after Mr Imnetu fell to the ground.

Detective Chief Inspector Brian Howie from the Met’s Specialist Crime Command, who led the investigation, said: “Our thoughts very much remain with Mussie’s family and friends in Dubai, Sweden and London. Mussie was a loving husband, father, son and a respected chef. He was in London for a few days to help train his colleagues and went out that evening to enjoy the post Notting Hill Carnival atmosphere, where tragically he was violently assaulted.”
