POLICE have issued a renewed witness appeal to a crash in Stanmore which left a teenager dead.

Officers are investigating a crash in The Common on Sunday, November 8 in the early hours of the morning.

Two cars, a Honda and a Fiesta, collided while driving in the same direction along the country lane, causing the Fiesta to career into a ditch.

The driver of the Fiesta, Shenol Ahmet, 19, died in hospital a week after the crash, while his friend remains in critical condition in hospital. A third passenger in the Fiesta was injured in the crash but later discharged from hospital.

Police have today appealed for two women who were at Sahara lounge, in Stanmore Broadway, at around 4.30am on the morning of the crash, to come forward.

Officers believe they may be vital witnesses who can help piece together the events leading up to the fatal crash.

The women are thought to have left the shisha bar and got into a Silver Toyota Avensis mini-cab, which then drove off towards Stanmore Broadway.

Cops are also keen to speak to the mini-cab driver for further information.

The two women are described as being of Asian or Middle Eastern appearance, they are in their 20s, and both have long dark hair.

One of the women was wearing leggings and a dark top, her friend was wearing dark skinny jeans and a dark jacket, and was carrying a black shiny handbag.

Anyone who can help trace the witnesses can contact Seargent Steve Pidgeon on 0208 998 5319 or call Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.
