Love row clue to dad killing

COPS are investigating a possible love triangle motive for the tragic killing of a new dad.

John Nii Kacsu Abbey, 26, was stabbed as his three-year-old daughter looked on while waiting at a bus stop to travel to see his newborn son in hospital.

But the News of the World can exclusively reveal that the tragic dad—known to his friends as King—knew the man now being quizzed over the murder and had fought with him before.

A pal in Croydon, South London, said: “King and the guy in custody were good friends.

“But recently they had a falling out over King’s girlfriend. King accused the other man of seeing her behind his back. They had already had one fight.”

Last night, a Scotland Yard spokesman confirmed they were looking at the love triangle motive. He said: “This is a line of enquiry.”
