About 600 people attended, Sunday, a memorial service held to honor Azzam Raguragui, a Moroccan teenager who was stabbed to death earlier in May in a Park in Dundrum, Dublin. The Friends and family of the 18-year-old gathered to remember him at Clonskeagh mosque, the Irish Times reported.
The parents of the teenager Abderrahmane Raguaragui and Hajiba Elouaddaf spoke during the service, describing him as a «very compliant son to his father and mother» who had always «delivered his promises».
Speaking to the crowds, the mother of Azzam said that it was «very difficult» to see blood on the face and body of her son, knowing that she had lost him forever. «But I feel you now are all my son», she said, addressing a number of Azzam’s friends and classmates who attended the service. «Do good deeds to honor Azzam», she told them.
Raguragui was killed on May 10 while he was on his way to pray at a mosque. According to the same source, the young man was at the Finsbury Park with a group of Muslim teenagers when a boy from another group tried to steal his bike. Trying to resist the same kid, Raguragui was fatally stabbed and sent to the hospital, where he drew his last breath. The funeral of the young man took place on Friday at the same mosque.
For the record, police announced last week that they have identified the suspect, linked to the death of Raguragui.
Garda sources said that they believe a south Dublin teenager is the suspect for the stabbing, adding that they have already been in contact with his family.
The suspect has not been arrested yet, but a teenager who said he was with Reguragui during the stabbing presented himself at a Garda station on Saturday and had been assisting the police since then.
Detectives revealed that teenagers who were there when Reguragui was stabbed took a video of the fight.
