The tit-for-tat feud between the groups in Dudley has claimed two lives, several serious injuries and led to long prison terms for members both sides.

Sikander Ali, 38, of Park Head Road, Netherton, is charged with the January 2021 murder of Zeb, known as H, and possession of a firearm.

Ali was allegedly in the VW Golf when Hassan Tasleem and Gurdeep Sandhu shot Mr Zeb outside his home on January 31, 2021. A bullet hit his head, he was rushed to hospital but died the next day. He was not involved in any of the previous violence but was related to members who were. 

The shooting was in response to the  Choudhary Akeel Hussain being run over by a car in Dudley on January 20 after his brother's appeal of his life sentence for a previous murder in the feud was thrown out. Akeel Hussain was convicted of manslaughter concerning Zeb's killing last year.
