Detectives are urging the public to come forward with any information related to the murder of Robert Robinson, a 21-year-old man who was fatally stabbed in Carteret Way, SE8, on Thursday, June 6. The investigation, led by Detective Inspector Neil Tovey, is still ongoing, and authorities are seeking assistance from the local community to bring justice to Robert and his family.
