DCI Simon Werrett said: “This was another unnecessary death linked to gang activity in Essex.
“These defendants have never any shown remorse for the attack and the needless loss of life.
“I am pleased they have been given lengthy custodial sentences taking them off the streets of Essex. Hopefully Mr Levin’s family can now move on with their lives.”
