Three gang members guilty of shooting that left five-year-old girl paralysed Thusha Kamaleswaran was left paralysed after she was shot at Stockwell in south London. Three members of a south London street gang have been convicted of carrying out an attack that left a five-year-old girl paralysed. Thusha Kamaleswaran had been "playing happily" in her uncle's convenience store in March last year when three masked young men chased a man who they thought was a member of a rival gang into the shop and fired two shots through the open door. Thusha, who had been in the shop in Stockwell with her older brother and younger sister, was hit in the chest by a single bullet that passed through her body. The five-year-old, thought to be the youngest gang victim in the capital, went into cardiac arrest and medics performed emergency surgery at the scene before taking her to King's College hospital, where she had to be revived by doctors after having a second cardiac arrest. She now requires round-the-clock care and will be paralysed for the rest of her life. Roshan Selvakumar, 35, who had been buying groceries in the shop, was also injured in the attack. He was shot in the face during the raid and the bullet remains lodged in his head. Kazeem Kolawole, 19, Anthony McCalla, 19, and Nathaniel Grant, 21, all of south London, were found guilty of causing grievous bodily harm with intent to Thusha and to Selvakumar at the Old Bailey. The three were also found guilty of the attempted murder of one of the two men who ran into the shop, Roshaun Bryan, who denies any involvement in gangs, and having a firearm with intent to endanger life.CCTV footage seen in court during the trial showed Thusha playing in the aisle of the shop with her 12-year-old brother and three-year-old sister before the two intended victims rushed in. She is then shown moving towards the front of the store, but as the gunman opens fire she is bundled aside and left in the line of fire. Moments later she is shown slumped on the floor with blood coming from her chest. The court heard that the shooting was the result of an increasingly violent feud between two rival south London gangs - the OC/GAS gang based around Brixton and the ABM gang based in nearby Stockwell. "The events of the evening are not isolated," Edward Brown QC, prosecuting, told the court. There had been violence between gangs. The GAS gang was involved in an ongoing and violent rivalry with an opposing gang known as ABM. A tit-for-tat escalating in degrees of violence. The three defendants are closely associated with the GAS or OC gang that often congregates in a square in Brixton. Kolawole, McCalla and Grant had met earlier in the evening and tested the gun by firing it at a tree before donning masks and setting off on bikes on their "mission" into the rival gang's territory a few minutes away. During the trial, Thusha's mother, Sharmila Kamaleswaran, broke down as the jury was shown footage of her daughter playing in an aisle, then lying on the floor after she was shot.
