A teenage boy was allegedly punched in the face, stabbed and stomped on before he was abducted by some of the men accused of murdering Cassius Turvey, a court has heard.
Cassius, a 15-year-old Noongar Yamatji boy, died in hospital 10 days after prosecutors say he was chased down, knocked to the ground and “deliberately struck to the head with a metal pole” in Perth’s eastern suburbs on 13 October 2022.
