Relatives Accused of Killing Teen They Thought Was a Witch
Relatives who suspected a British teenager of practicing witchcraft beat and drowned him Christmas Day 2010 as he “begged to die” because of the pain they were inflicting, prosecutors alleged in a London court.
Kristy Bamu, a 15-year-old boy from Newham, east London, allegedly died at the hands of Eric Bikubi and his partner, Magalie Bamu, Kristy’s sister. Both of them have denied the charges.
Bikubi and Bamu allegedly forced Kristy’s four siblings to join in the attack.
The alleged attackers hit the teen with sticks, metal bars, a hammer and chisel, prosecutors said, and he “begged to die” because of the pain from the beating.

Kristy suffered more than 100 injuries.
