“This was senseless act of violence that resulted in an innocent woman being killed.

“Michelle’s family continue to grieve and we are determined to ensure those responsible face the consequences of their actions.

“If you can help in any way then please don’t hesitate to contact us.”

An investigation was launched after police were called at around 9.15pm on December 14 last year, to reports of the shooting in Gifford Road, which happened as Michelle and others were standing outside the church following a wake.

Officers and London Ambulance Service paramedics attended the scene.
