Six Sentenced to Life for Murdering Father in Birmingham Park
Six individuals—three men and three teenage boys—have been sentenced to life in prison for the brutal murder and robbery of Michael Obasi in Birmingham's Perry Hall Park. Obasi, 38, died from multiple injuries after being violently attacked and robbed by the group during an evening walk; his body was found two days later. The perpetrators were identified through extensive CCTV footage, which also captured some of them using Obasi’s bank card and re-enacting the attack while laughing. The three adult offenders, Manuel Filipache, Ion Morar, and Ion Calin, along with the three teenagers, were also found guilty of a previous violent robbery at Walsall railway station. Sentencing at Birmingham Crown Court resulted in minimum terms ranging from nine to 29 years for the defendants, amounting to nearly 120 years in total. Obasi’s family expressed deep grief over his loss, remembering him as a beloved partner and father whose life was senselessly taken.
