More arrests over man’s stabbing in Bradford


Two more men have been arrested on suspicion of murder in connection with the death of a man who was found with stab wounds in Bradford.

Luqman Ishfaq, 23, was found on Barlow Street in Barkerend on Monday 21 October after what police said was an “incident of violent disorder” and later died in hospital.

A 23-year-old man and a 34-year-old were arrested on Friday, West Yorkshire Police said.

Two other men aged 26 and 19 who were arrested overnight on Thursday also on suspicion of murder remain in police custody.

Another man, aged 24, who was arrested on suspicion of affray, has been released on police bail pending further enquiries.

Police said 15 people have so far been arrested as part of the investigation by the Homicide and Major Enquiry Team.

The 10 other people arrested in connection with Mr Ishfaq’s death had since been bailed, officers said.

A police spokesperson had earlier said that Mr Ishfaq was one of four people who had fled from a VW Golf involved in disorder and were chased by a group armed with weapons.
