Reggie Salmon, 20, from Stourbridge Road, Dudley, 18-year-old Dontay Ellis of Central Drive, Lower Gornal and 17-year-olds from Dudley and Newcastle-under-Lyme, who cannot be named, entered their plea at Wolverhampton Crown Court yesterday.

Each further denied the manslaughter of Mr Kang whose body was discovered at the first floor flat in Stourbridge Road, Brierley Hill, during the early hours of January 6.

The 17-year-old from Newcastle-under-Lyme admitted conspiracy to rob while the other three defendants denied this offence.

They were all remanded and are expected to stand trial in January.
