A Derby man was beaten to death with a baseball bat just yards from his home.
Jatinder Singh Dosanjh is accused of repeatedly smashing Melvyn Hadley junior with the weapon in Normanton, following an earlier scuffle between the pair.

He denies murder, saying he acted in self-defence.
Nirmal Shant QC, prosecuting, told Derby Crown Court yesterday that Dosanjh had been drinking and was outside his ex-girlfriend's house on his phone, loudly trying to persuade her to come out after she had finished with him.

She said remonstrations, during the early hours of July 29 last year, were said to have alerted neighbours, including an elderly man who, fearing for his safety, emerged from his home with the bat to try to reason with Dosanjh.

Ms Shant said that, moments later, Mr Hadley, who had left his house nearby with a female friend to buy some cigarettes, became involved in an argument with Dosanjh and the pair scuffled in the street.

The court heard that after the initial fight, Dosanjh, of Duncan Road, Derby, allegedly grabbed the bat while the elderly man's attention was distracted and attacked Mr Hadley.

A postmortem examination revealed the 20-year-old had suffered a fractured skull and died from severe head injuries.

Ms Shant said there was evidence that Mr Hadley had suffered at least 14 blows to the head.

Neither the bat nor clothing warn by Dosanjh on the night has been recovered.

Ms Shant said witnesses had heard Dosanjh shout a racist comment at Mr Hadley during the attack.
