'12-year-old knife murderers got just 8 years for killing our son like a dog'

BRITAIN'S youngest knife murderers who butchered a stranger in a brutal machete attack aged just 12 could walk free before their 21st birthdays.
Shawn Seesahai, 19, was set upon for "no reason at all" by the out-of-control thugs, as he and a friend walked across a Wolverhampton park.
The boys each said the other was responsible for inflicting four stab wounds with the machete after the younger child shoulder-barged Shawn as he walked past.
The terrified pair tried to "run for their lives" after one attacker produced a blade but Shawn tragically stumbled and fell, leaving him at the mercy of the killers.
Sickening
Shawn was punched, kicked and stamped on before being "chopped at" with the machete.
He was stabbed through the heart by the 16-in blade and suffered a fractured skull in the attack in November last year.
One of the boys was known for carrying the deadly blade which he kept stashed beneath his bed and posed wielding it for a sickening picture hours before the murder.
Shawn's parents, Suresh and Maneshwary and sister Shana, reacted with horror as they watched the killers be told their life custodial sentences would mean that they spend at least eight-and-a-half years behind bars. The family had logged on via video-link from their home on the Caribbean island of Anguilla with Shana screaming in horror as the minimum term was revealed.
Devastated mum Maneshwary said: "Every child in the UK will look at this sentence and will see they only get eight years and they will do the same thing."
