The brothers of murdered graduate Evren Anil hope a march motivated by his killing will send a strong anti-crime message to the Government.

Ozgur and Bulent Anil explained around 500 people turned out this afternoon to take part in the silent march from the family's home in Hancock Road to Central Hill.

On August 19 around 200 people attended a vigil in memory of the former Kingston University student.

Evren died eight days after being attacked in Central Hill during an argument over litter on August 5.

The 23-year-old had been driving to Crystal Palace with his sister Elif when two youths threw a bar of chocolate through the window of Elif's black Peugeot car.

When Evren got out of the car the youths produced a blade and despite a passerby attempting to intervene, Evren was thumped in the face with the knife and fell to the ground - suffering a heavy blow to the head.

Ozgur said: "I think people are listening. We are saying enough is enough, that the Government needs to do something about all this crime. When an 11-year-old boy can be shot dead, that's just disgusting something has got to be done."

Evren's eldest brother, 33-year-old Bulent from South Norwood, explained: "People are taking this seriously. There were a lot of people who had suffered the same as us, other families that had lost people in unprovoked attacks."

Ozgur, 32, added: "The family is not holding up at all. We are still waiting for Evren's body to be released."
