A 14-year-old boy from Clapham has been charged with the murder of a suspected paedophile.
The boy, who cannot be named for legal reasons, is accused of stabbing Robert Daley, 45.
He was found lying in a pool of blood in the hall of his Ferndale Road flat in Brixton on Friday.
The boy is alleged to have carried out the killing with a 14-year-old girl from Streatham.
She was charged with murder on Tuesday.
Mr Daley had been accused of child abuse but days before he was killed the CPS said there was not enough evidence to charge him.
The girl was today refused bail at an application hearing at the Old Bailey.
She will be held in secure local authority accomodation until she next appears at Sutton Youth Court on May 25 with the 14-year-old boy.
The boy appeared at Croydon Youth Court today. He spoke only to confirm his name and address. He wore a blue polo shirt, black jogging trousers and black trainers.
He sat beside his older sister during the two-minute hearing. He was remanded in custody to appear at the Old Bailey for a bail application next Tuesday.
A 16-year-old girl and an 18-year-old man are currently on police bail after being arrested in connection with the killing.
Officers are now not believed to be looking for anyone else in connection with the inquiry.
