A jury has found Eugeniu Neamtu guilty of the murder of his flatmate, Gheorghe Trica. The incident occurred in February in Walthamstow, London, where the two men resided together. Prosecutors presented evidence during the trial that led to the guilty verdict, marking the second time Neamtu has been convicted of murder.

Reports indicate that Neamtu had previously served a prison sentence for a separate murder committed in the past. The prosecution highlighted the similarities between the two crimes, noting that the circumstances of the recent killing in Walthamstow were "strikingly similar" to the previous offense. Neamtu, a Romanian national, remains in custody following the verdict. Sentencing is expected to follow in due course, where the court will consider his prior criminal record in determining the length of his incarceration.
