Patrick Sharp, also 18, pleaded not guilty to Kajetan’s murder during an appearance via video link from Bedford prison to Luton crown court.

He did plea guilty to possession of a blade and possession of cocaine.

Prosecutor Simon Wilshire said the murder trial is set to begin on February 20 next year.

It expected to last for two to three weeks.

At the time of his death Kajetan’s family said: “Kajetan was a loving, joy-filled young man with a bright future.

“He was known for his love of dance, animals, hard work and caring friendships.

“As a high achiever academically and in his hobbies, he was set for big things.

“He had just finished school and had his life to look forward to.

“The entire family is devastated at the loss of a much-loved family member, and he will be greatly missed by all who knew him.”
