Jurors should “rightly be disgusted, appalled and angry” at the behaviour of a 15-year-old boy on trial for the alleged murder of a pensioner, but the teenager did not intend to kill him, his defence barrister has said.
The boy, who cannot be named because of his age, denies murder and an alternative count of manslaughter in relation to the death of 80-year-old Bhim Kohli, who died in hospital a day after suffering fractured ribs and a broken neck in an alleged attack in a park near Leicester on September 1 last year.
