A Marlow Bottom teenager charged with murder will next appear at court with a co-defendant.
Benjamin Eyles was charged last week with murdering 19-year-old accountant Joshua Harling, from Oxford, on July 22 this year in Thame.
Eyles, 19, was also charged with ‘conspiring to cause grievous bodily harm with intent’ alongside Nathan Braim in Elms Park in Thame on July 18.
At Oxford Magistrates Court last Wednesday, Eyles, of Monks Hollow, Marlow Bottom, spoke only to confirm his name, age and address.
