Two teenagers were sentenced today for killing a dog walker who was racially abused, punched, kicked and slapped in the face with a shoe while on his knees.
A 15-year-old boy was ordered to serve just seven years' jailed and a 13-year-old girl was spared being jailed and instead handed a three-year youth rehabilitation order over the manslaughter of Bhim Kohli.
Mr Kohli, 80, was attacked by the balaclava-clad male at Franklin Park in Braunstone Tow near Leicester on September 1 last year, while the female filmed and laughed.
The grandfather had been racially abused and left on the ground near his home before his family found him severely injured in the evening. He died in hospital the next day having suffered a broken neck and fractured ribs.
Today at Leicester Crown Court, the boy and girl - who cannot be named after it was ruled they must remain anonymous - were sentenced by Mr Justice Turner.
