Sheku Kamara (born 15 November 1987 in Lambeth) is a defender and a convicted criminal.
Having been an apprentice at Charlton Athletic, Kamara signed professional forms for Watford in June 2006 after a trial spell.
Kamara's 2006-07 pre-season was disrupted with a knee injury which it was initially feared would keep him out for the entire season. However the injury was proved to be less serious than originally thought, only keeping him out of action for around a month.
Kamara made his first professional appearance on 19 September 2006, coming on as a second-half substitute for Dominic Blizzard in the League Cup second round victory over Accrington Stanley.
In November 2006 Kamara joined Grays Athletic on a six-week loan deal. He played for the Essex club 4 times during his time at the club before returning to Watford the following January.
Following a number of trials, Sheku rejoined the Essex outfit on non-contract terms and made his second debut in front of the Setanta Sports cameras against Halifax Town, coming on as a substitute.
On 1 May 2008, Sheku Kamara was sentenced to eight years in jail for his involvement in an armed robbery. He was arrested as part of a gang of criminals who would confront civilians with a gun and ask for their possessions, including mobile phones, wallets and pin numbers.
In passing sentence, the judge described the men's actions as well-planned and intentional banditry of the worst order. He commended the arresting officers for their bravery and the investigating team for the professionalism of their work.
