THREE boys and a man have pleaded not guilty to murdering a teenager who was found dead in a Kirklees park.

Amar Aslam died from head injuries in Crow Nest Park, Dewsbury, on May 25.

Amin Hussain Ali, 20, of Field Lane, Ravens-thorpe, two 16-year-old boys and a youth of 15 denied the murder when they appeared in a brief hearing at Leeds Crown Court yesterday.

They also deny robbing the 17-year-old victim of a chain and a mobile phone. A fifth defendant, a 16-year-old youth, did not enter pleas.

The case was adjourned and a trial will take place on November 10. It is expected to last at least four weeks.

All five defendants were remanded in custody.
