The popular father was gunned down in Queen's Cross four years ago as part of a bitter feud between families in Dudley. 

The gunman and other associates have previously been found guilty of the murder.

Sikander Ali, 38, of Park Head Road, Netherton, is now charged with murder and possession of a firearm. 

Mohammed Shazad, 28,  of Farm Road, also of Netherton, is accused of perverting the course of justice concerning the disposal of the VW Golf used in the shooting. 

Prosecuting, James Curtis KC told the jury at Wolverhampton Crown Court: "Fasten your seatbelts. If we use the analogy of a flight then we will be going through several time zones to explain everything about this case.

"This was an execution, a drive-by shooting. And you will see footage of the moment Mr Zeb was gunned down.
