The last time he saw Rauf was at the funeral of his uncle, stabbed to death in what was said to be a family dispute - an incident that reportedly prompted Rauf to flee Britain. "I knew him as a very good kid, from a good family. I never heard anything bad about him. When I heard the news I was shocked."
