These are the faces of eight men jailed for life for abducting and brutally murdering a former boxer.
Christopher Hughes' mutilated body was discovered on a country road on the outskirts of Skelmersdale by a dogwalker after he was bundled into the back of an Audi by and viciously attacked. The 37-year-old suffered nearly 100 separate injuries, having been hunted down by a vigilante gang who wrongly believed the dad had raped a teenager.
Seven men were previously convicted of kidnapping and murder in January following a lengthy trial at Liverpool Crown Court, while an eighth admitted the same charges. They were locked up for a combined total of 229 years this morning, Thursday, after being handed life imprisonments.
