Osman Sharif

Site: Osman Sharif (1 memorial)

N15, Tottenham Green East South Side

Another sad, sad, roadside shrine to a victim of youth crime, this one a knifing. Amongst all the flowers and expressions of grief are some desperate pleas: "Stop killing each other. Stop arguing, fighting and posting it". Photographed in January 2019.
