Minor from Hoorn and 19-year-old from Amsterdam remain in custody after fatal shooting

Two suspects, a teenager from Hoorn and a 19-year-old from Amsterdam, have had their pre-trial detention extended following a fatal shooting in Nijmegen on July 21. The victim, 18-year-old Jahfairel from Rotterdam, was discovered by police on the Graafseweg during the Vierdaagsefeest and later died from his injuries in the hospital. While several other individuals from Hoorn, Zwaag, and Avenhorn were initially arrested in connection with the incident, they have since been released, though they remain suspects in the ongoing investigation.

The fatal incident is reportedly linked to a long-standing rivalry between youth groups from Hoorn and Amsterdam. According to reports, the conflict is connected to the drill rap scene, with members of these groups targeting each other in their songs. Authorities continue to investigate the shooting as they seek to clarify the roles of all involved parties and determine the specific circumstances surrounding the victim's death during the public festivities.
