AN 18-year-old man will face the Melbourne Magistrates' Court today charged with the manslaughter of David Cassai.

Dylan John Closter was the second man to be charged by Homicide Squad detectives yesterday in relation to the fatal bashing of Mr Cassai, 22, on a Rye shopping strip in the early hours of New Year's Eve.

The scruffy-haired Millgrove teenager appeared nervous as he was led into an out-of-sessions court hearing at St Kilda Rd Police Station last night, wearing a white T-shirt, dark-coloured sport shorts and thongs on his feet.

He was charged with one count of manslaughter and one count of affray. He was also charged with two counts of assault intending to cause injury on two others injured that night: Andrew John and Vincent Tran.

One of Mr Cassai's mates, a 23-year-old Warranwood man, suffered a broken jaw in the alleged attack.

Closter said he understood the charges read out to him by Detective Senior Constable Carla McIntyre from the Homicide Squad.

He did not apply for bail and was last night remanded at the Melbourne Custody Centre after being led out of the brief, three-minute hearing.

Police have also charged a 24-year-old Kilsyth man with intentionally causing injury and affray.

The man was bailed by police to appear at Melbourne Magistrate's Court on February 20.

Mr Cassai, of Templestowe, died in hospital hours after he was allegedly attacked.

Homicide detectives interviewed a Kilsyth man, 20, and a Yarra Junction man, 22, on Tuesday night before releasing them pending further investigations.

Police said the investigation into Mr Cassai's death was continuing.

Tributes have flowed on Facebook for Mr Cassai, whose organs were donated for transplant.

His sister Luisa Cassai wrote: "You are my hero. My love for you is eternal you have touched everyone's life not only me but everyone - even people that didn't know you beb.

"The lucky recipient of your heart and other organs they will have with them your love for life, a part of your personality and they will feel a sudden urge to `get s--- done' something you always emphasised always because that's what we all need to do with our lives - live life to the upmost and do what you love. That's what you did David in everything. RIP.''
