Police were called at 2.28pm on January 7 to reports of a stabbing on a Route 472 bus on Woolwich Church Street, near the junction with the A205 South Circular Road.
Officers attended, along with paramedics from the London Ambulance Service and London’s Air Ambulance.
Kelyan died shortly after medics arrived. His family are being supported by specialist officers.
Following a manhunt by the Met’s Specialist Crime Command, three arrests were made yesterday (January 15).
A 44-year-old woman was arrested for assisting an offender and has since been released under investigation.
Last week, the victim’s heartbroken mum opened up about how her son had been targeted by gangs from the age of 6.
