The court heard that the victim lived with his mother and two brothers, including Anderson, at the address in Stretford but there had been ‘tension in the house’ between the two brothers for some time.

Detective Inspector Neil Higginson, from GMP’s Major Incident Team, said: “This was a devastating and traumatic incident for the family and was a result of tensions between the two brothers.

“The trial has no doubt caused distress and upset to the family who have had to listen to the details during a trial.”
