15-year-old Kristy Bamu,was tortured to death over claims of being a witch.
Kristy and his siblings, from Paris, were visiting relatives over Christmas in London, when brother-in-law, Eric Bikubi, and sister Magalie Bamu, started assaulting them on grounds of practising sorcery.
The family were beaten, refused food and sleep, and placed in a cold water bath, when eventually they admitted being witches in order to stop the torture. Kristy's own siblings, 22-year-old brother, Yves, and 20-year-old sister, Kelly,were forced to take part in the violence against him.
The teenager was hit with a metal bar, hammer and chisel and was in such pain that he begged to die.
Mr. Bikubi and Ms. Bamu, both Congolese, are currently denying all charges of murder.
