A man has been found guilty of murdering another man who was stabbed to death at a house party.
Lazarus Mokono, 26, was fatally injured during the gathering at a property on Co-operative Street in Barnsley on 21 February.
Emergency services tried to save Mr Mokono, known as ‘Laz’, after being called to the house in the early hours of the morning, but he was pronounced dead at the scene a short time later.
Sipho Pfukani, 28, of Oldham House Lane, in Wombwell, denied murdering Mr Mokono but was found guilty by a jury, following a two-week trial at Sheffield Crown Court.
