A reward of up to 20 thousand pounds is being offered up, for information on the murder of a man in Leicester.
41-year-old Raju Modhwadia, who was also known as Kara Muru, was found stabbed to death on Evington Road in the Stoneygate area on 27th December 2021.
Officers think he was involved in a fight before the knife attack and people, who saw what happened, still haven't come forward.
It's though that took place on Hamilton Street, in Leicester, near to the junction with St Albans Road.
Lydia Patsalides, Crimestoppers East Midlands Regional Manager, said:
