Brothers admit 'horror' attack on boys

Two young brothers who tortured a nine-year-old and an 11-year-old boy in a series of brutal assaults in the UK today admitted the “horror” attacks.

In a crime with chilling echoes of the James Bulger case, the elder victim pleaded to be left to die after his ordeal at the hands of the brothers, who were aged 10 and 11 at the time.
