<div>A male Louis Vuitton model faces a life jail sentence after being convicted of stabbing his rival to death in a row over a girlfriend.</div>
</div>

25-year-old Uzoka was fatally knifed in the heart, shoulder and back after a confrontation with Koh, 24, in Shepherd&#8217;s Bush, west London, in January 2018.<br />

<div>Described in court as Britain&#8217;s &#8216;most famous black model&#8217;, Uzoka had starred in a GQ photoshoot shortly before his death which saw him stand in front of a Mercedes Benz feature for the magazine.</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">Mr Uzoka also starred in campaigns for Zara and Mercedes and regularly modelled for clothing line Everlane.<br />
He was signed up by world renowned agent Premiere Model Management, who helped launched the career of Naomi Campbell.<br />
George Koh <a href="https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/george-koh-guilty-of-murder-of-fashion-rival-harry-uzoka-in-feud-over-girl-a3910456.html">murdered lookalike fellow model Mr Uzoka, </a> in a fatal confrontation in the street in Shepherd&#8217;s Bush, after they had sparred verbally on social media.<br />
The feud escalated when Koh met up with a female French model and bragged that he had slept with Mr Uzoka&#8217;s girlfriend.<br />
The pair arranged to meet face-to-face. Uzoka and his music video editor pal Adrian Harper took dumbbell bars for extra protection in the event of a confrontation. However, their rivals were armed with knives and what they thought was a gun during the stand-off<br />
Koh and pal Merse Dikanda, 24, armed themselves with knives.<br />
A third man, 24-year-old personal trainer Jonathan Okigbo, also backed the duo in the fight.<br />
The footage, released by police, shows the trio chase Uzoka and a friend through a carpark in Ollgar Close, Shepherd’s Bush, close to the victim’s home.<br />
The group can be seen brandishing weapons as they chase Mr Uzoka and his friend into a carpark before re-appearing.<br />
One of the men, later identified as Koh, wipes his blade on his trouser leg before the group huddle in a doorway following the fatal stabbing.<br />
At the <a href="https://www.standard.co.uk/topic/old-bailey">Old Bailey</a> this afternoon, Koh and Dikanda were both found guilty of Mr Uzoka&#8217;s murder. Okigbo was cleared of murder but found guilty of manslaughter.<br />
Koh stood with his hands in his pockets as the verdicts were delivered, displaying little emotion. Okigbo shook his head and slumped in his chair as he was convicted.</p>

<div>Koh, a former Louis Vuitton and Paul Smith model, previously posted a photo on Instagram of David Beckham standing in front of his photo at London Fashion Week.</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">The defendant claimed he acted in self-defence and only wanted to meet face to face for him to apologise to his rival for thinking he had bedded Ms Campbell.<br />
All three defendants, including Koh, and his two friends who were also at the scene, Jonathan Okigbo and Merse Dikanda, all denied murder.<br />
Koh had already pleaded guilty to unlawful possession of two knives, but Dikanda denied having an offensive weapon, a machete and knife.<br />
At the Old Bailey today a jury found Koh and Dikanda guilty of murder after 18 hours of deliberation. Okigbo was found guilty of the lesser charge of manslaughter.<br />
Dikanda was also found guilty of two counts of possessing a bladed weapon. None of the defendants reacted as the verdicts were returned.</p>

<div>Messages in which Koh said he admired Mr Uzoka came to light when the defendant harassed a French catwalk star for sex. Koh persuaded fellow model Annecetta Lefon to come to his home whilst she was working in London on a video.</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<p class="mol-para-with-font">But during her one night&#8217;s stay he was said to have tried to kiss her and force her to perform a sex act.<br />
When she protested Koh began asking about Mr Uzoka and would not believe her when she insisted they had never met.<br />
Judge Wendy Joseph adjourned the hearing until September 21 all three will sentenced.<br />
She added: &#8216;I want impact statements from Harry&#8217;s family who have sat through the trial day after day with such dignity.<br />
&#8216;I want to know how all this has impacted on them, not that it&#8217;s hard to imagine but I want to hear it from them.&#8217;<br />
All three were remanded in custody until they are sentenced next month.</p>
