Sad story

[Lonelymum]

I have just read this in the Sunday Times. I know I am feeling emotional at the moment anyway, but it made me cry.

[Fangache]

YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING!! OMG! That is just too disturbing for words!
They sent a video to his Mum of him begging for his Mummy as he was viciously beaten. I am shaking.

[Lonelymum]

There are pictures of him in the paper which don't seem to be for view in the online edition. One of him with his hands out stretched as described in the article, the other of him now with his mum. They look lovely people. Isn't it sad?

[Janh]

Oh, me too, lm. God there are some wicked people.

[pjsmum]

There are some sick sick people in this world. There are also some very brave people who deal with the worst and most horrendous experiences imaginable. Did they catch the sick b***ds who did this? I feel sick at the thought of what they have done.

[Lonelymum]

No they were never caught.

[Fangache]

I honestly can't open that link again... could you tell me what country it was please?

[Caligula]

Horrific.

And scary that they were never caught. I don't suppose much effort has been made to catch them in an area where blood feuds are the norm.

Fangache - Dagestan, real bandit country even by former Soviet Union standards
Poor little boy

It makes Ingushetia, North Ossetia, Chechnya look like Frinton, quite frankly

[Lonelymum]

He was snatched in a Russian province called Dagestan which is near Chechnya accoding to the article. Anyway, the inference is, it was Chechens - again. Why do they pick on children all the time?

This is just cruel beyond words, puts my problems into perspective. So glad that the mother kept him with her, but what an awful grandmother.
