Abukar Mohammed was murdered in Stockwell in south London on the night of 26 July. His family was originally from Somalia, and he was shot dead at point-blank range in a random ‘execution’ after he was chased across the Stockwell Gardens estate by a gang of teenagers on bikes, wearing clothes with ‘SW9’ written on the front, and ‘Hot Spot’, their name for the estate, a favourite with drug dealers, on the back.
Abukar was sixteen and he was the tenth young victimof gun and knife crime in London in six months. In common with all the others, from Michael Dosunmu, age fifteen, shot dead at home in Peckham in early February, to Mark Dinnegan, age fourteen, stabbed in Islington after being chased by a gang of youths at the end of June, Abukar had had a virtual shrine set up in his memory on gonetoosoon. co. uk within just a few hours of word of his murder getting round.

In the early hours of 4 May, with police and volunteers searching the beach and the narrow streets of Praia da Luz, the McCanns’ friends and family back in England started to circulate a text message urging everyone ‘2 light a candle 4 madeleine who was abducted from portugal. we r trying 2 make it a worldwide thing so if u cn plz join in by textin or emailin as many people as u cn’.
Twelve days later the official findmadeleine website was launched. It drew on the expertise of some of Kate and Gerry’s friends in broadcasting and the New Media. It featured many pictures of Madeleine taken over the six days of her holiday; the earliest showed her climbing the steps of the EasyJet at East Midlands airport just before she tripped and cut her knee. Also included were casual, intimate snapshots from the family album, innocent and ordinary.
Madeleine’s eyes had been stylised into media emblems, the defect in her right eye simplified into an easily recognisable logo.
findmadeleine.com recorded more than 70 million visitsin the first three days, and 7,500 messages of support, the last folk ritual of social gathering. That volume of traffic was irresistible to typosquatters who, simply by launching near-name sites with only a single letter difference, could send Madeleine well-wishers and the surfers of second-hand non-experience to porn sites and other sites hastily set up by conmen.
Only eight days after her disappearance, an appeal in the form of a rap entitled ‘For The Safe Return Of The Little Toddler To Her Family’, appeared on YouTube:
8 days gone since this lil girl was snatched
people praying all over just bring her back
can you imagine how it feels to be her mum and dad
or her little brother and sister who wont understand
3 years old i ask my self why the world is so cold
but we must keep the faith and not let this go
together we will find maddie dont give up hope
its times like these we hold our family near
the public is there only hope to make her reappear
i see this on the news and i want to shed a tear
this is the truth this is a fuked up world
who
