A rapper who has been unmasked as the killer of schoolboy Jimmy Mizen could face a return to prison after possibly breaching his licence by filming a music video in Greenwich.
An investigation is currently under way after convicted murderer Jake Fahri appeared to record drill music referencing his 2008 murder of Jimmy, who bled to death at a bakery in south London after Farhi threw a large glass dish that shattered and severed an artery in his neck.
Having watched videos unearthed by the Sun newspaper, Jimmy’s mother Margaret Mizen and her husband Barry have spotted that the balaclava-clad Fahri was seen on Greenwich Peninsula with Canary Wharf in the backdrop, which they say is a parole breach and may ultimately lead to a return to prison.
Mrs Mizen, who awarded an MBE in 2013 for her work with husband helping young people fleeing violence, told The Sun: “He is not allowed in certain boroughs. Greenwich is one of them.”

When asked if her son’s killer should be returned to prison she added: “He will have to. Otherwise the licence will be a laughing stock.
“If he has breached it then yes, he needs to go back to prison and really think about his life.”
The mother asked “what is the point?” if Fahri had not changed as a person following his time in prison before explaining that the worse thing was that the videos “will make him a celebrity to some”.
Fahri, 35, appears as balaclava-clad rapper TEN who boasts about violence in several videos and the Sun reported that his tracks have recently been showcased on BBC Radio 1Xtra with DJ Theo Johnson saying the artist “really stands out”.

In 2009, the then-19-year-old Farhi was jailed for life with a minimum term of 14 years at the Old Bailey for the murder. Now 35, he was released on licence in June 2023.
HM Prison and Probation Service has said it is investigating the case as a “priority” and explained that it takes “any material that could glorify violence or distress victims extremely seriously”.
The BBC previously said nobody at the station knew of TEN’s true identity.

The broadcaster said in an updated statement: “This individual does not feature on any BBC playlists.
“We have never played – as we pointed out to the Sun – the lyrics they have printed.
“He’s had two other tracks played twice. 1Xtra has no further plans to play his music, we were not aware of his background and we in no way condone his actions.”
Since his release from HMP Long Lartin, Fahri has moved into a flat in Deptford, where he lives with his dog.
He wears a tag, follows a curfew and is barred from entering Lewisham where the Mizens still live.
