Two teenagers appear in court charged with murder of 38-year-old father-of-one in Barry

Two teenagers have been charged with the murder of a 38-year-old man in South Wales.

A 16-year-old and 17-year-old boy, from Llantwit Major, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared at Cardiff Magistrates' Court on Thursday.

The family of the victim, Kamran Aman, have been informed and continue to receive support from specially trained officers, South Wales Police said in an update.

The force said it was called to a report of a stabbing on Barry Road, Barry, shortly before midnight on Monday.

In a statement, father-of-one Mr Aman's family said it was "with profound sorrow and heavy hearts that we mourn the tragic loss of Kamran".

They described him as "a devoted husband, a loving father, a cherished son, brother, uncle, and loyal friend".

They went on to say that he was "the heart of his family and loved within his community".

His family added that Mr Aman was "known for his generous spirit and kind heart" and that his absence left "an immeasurable void in the lives of all who knew him".

"As we grieve this unimaginable loss, we also honour and celebrate the life he lived and the impact he made. May his memory be a blessing."

Police said Mr Aman's family have asked for privacy as they come to terms with their grief.

The boys were remanded into youth detention and are due to appear at Cardiff Crown Court on Monday.

He confirmed police were not looking for anyone else in connection with Mr Aman's death as he thanked the community for its support during the investigation so far.

The investigation is ongoing and police have asked anyone with information to get in touch.
