A father, Kamran Aman, aged 38, tragically lost his life in a fatal stabbing in Barry, south Wales, that has led to the arrest of two teenagers. The incident occurred on Barry Road just before midnight on Monday.

Police confirmed the arrest of two teenagers in relation to the homicide, while investigations continue in the small Vale of Glamorgan town.

Forensic experts were spotted collecting evidence behind the cordon in Barry on Tuesday, while the force announced the arrest of two teenage boys, aged 16 and 17, on suspicion of murder after the alleged fatal stabbing the night before.

South Wales Police have identified the victim of the alleged late night stabbing as Kamran Aman in a recent statement, saying: "The man who died in Barry on Monday night has been named as 38-year-old Kamran Aman."

Detailing the tragic event of Monday night, the statement continued: "Police were called to a report of stabbing in Barry Road just before midnight last night.

"Father-of-one Kamran died and a murder investigation was launched. His family continue to be supported by specially-trained officers.

"An incident room has been set up at Cardiff Central Police Station and detectives are appealing for anyone with information to please come forward."

The two teenage boys, aged 16 and 17, arrested on suspicion of murder are not from Barry, but 10 miles down the road in Llantwit Major. They both remain in police custody.

Detective superintendent Mark O'Shea, of the force's Major Crime Team, said: "Extensive inquiries are continuing as we establish the tragic events which took place on Monday night.

"Our thoughts are with the family and friends of Kamran Aman.

"Police cordons and road closures are still in place and I would like to thank the community for their continued support and understanding while we progress the investigation.

"We are appealing for anyone who was in the area and witnessed what happened to please come forward with information no matter how insignificant they may feel it is."
