Bailey was attacked after a “silly argument” at Cults Academy in Aberdeen on October 28, 2015.

Stroud, who was 16 at the time of the attack, was detained for nine years by a judge at the High Court in Edinburgh in April last year after he was found guilty of culpable homicide and carrying weapons following a trial.
