An inquest into the death of Tu Quang Hoang Vu was dramatically halted when lawyers released fresh details of how he fell under a Piccadilly line train in November 2006.

The architecture student, 25, died after he was knocked off a crowded platform as a group of QPR youth team players "messed about" as they returned home from a training session. The Crown Prosecution Service was today studying the new evidence, which details crucial moments before the accident to see whether charges could be brought against Harry Smart, Chris Arthur, Ramone Rose and Kieron St Aime. Experts from the Transport Reserach Laboratory revealed to an inquest they had created a 3-D virtual reality reconstruction of the death.

They claim it details the teenagers' movements as they passed through a blind spot between the station's CCTV cameras, and will explain why Smart, 17, stumbled away from his friends and collided with Mr Vu, causing both to fall on to the tracks.

Mr Vu died instantly but Smart survived, suffering serious head injuries. All four of the youths were arrested on suspicion of murder but not charged.
