The family of a chef who was attacked near Notting Hill Carnival is devastated by his death. Mussie Imnetu, a 41-year-old chef from Dubai, was found unconscious with a head injury outside the Dr Power restaurant in Queensway. Despite efforts from customers and police officers to help him, Mussie passed away in the hospital on August 30.
Mussie, who had worked with famous chefs like Gordon Ramsay and Marcus Wareing, was a well-respected figure in the culinary world. His family, friends, and colleagues from around the world are mourning his loss, and the police are urging anyone with information about the attack to come forward.
