Two bungling hitmen who stabbed an innocent schoolboy to death by mistake were found guilty of his murder today. Ben Hope, 39, and Jason Richards, 38, both from Cardiff, were each paid £1,000 in "blood money" to murder a middle-aged family man who owed money to a shady businessman. The "hit" went tragically wrong when the balaclava-clad killers, who were high on drugs, went to the wrong address in Roath, Cardiff, in April 2010, and murdered teenager Aamir Siddiqi by mistake. Aamir, 17, was hacked down on the doorstep of his home. His frantic parents Iqbal and Parveen Siddiqi fought to save their son but were knifed in turn by the killers, who let out chilling howls. Hope and Richards both denied murdering Aamir and two separate counts of the attempted murder of his parents. They were convicted unanimously of all charges a day after the jury retired at Swansea Crown Court. Scary to think how cheap someone's life is , but the other point is because it was the wrong person it was tragic , I'm not sure what that means to be honest if it was the right person then it would have been ok
Wrong place, wrong time. These two druggies are called 'Hit-Men' but they weren't really. Hit men don't take a grand each to do the job, blow it on heroin, get high and so ****faced they get the wrong street. Saddo space cadets who will now go away for a very long time. Wonder what happened to the guy that ordered the hit? Frightening to think it could have happened to anyone. RIP
hi lads, i know aamir, we were in the same year, nice boy. in fact we were playing football together i think 3-4 days before he was stabbed. on facebook we saw a 17 year old had been stabbed and it was horrible knowing that it was likely there was someone we would know who had died. the murderers simply called on the wrong house and he paid the price. RIP.

a very sad story but all 2common these days im afraid..........swamp sorry 2 hear about that butty,what a waste of a life,his parents must feel lost and vunerable in theyre own home these days,my heart goes out 2 them both. lets be honest guys the death sentence cant be brought into a corrupt court system can it!!!the last man 2 hang in cardiff prison was later proved innocent>>>>so in other words murdered by the state. i do think the liam bradys and the like could take part in human testing instead of lab ratsmind,our fight for a cure 2 cancer would have more realistic results then first as last ..........................so in a way its a case of act like an animal,be treated like an animal.

These bastards have got the sentence they deserve in absence of the death penalty, each must serve a minimum of 40 years in jail. The judge summing up is what message the judiciary should be sending to scumbags like these. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-south-east-wales-21374332
dregs of society, how I would love to execute these bastards, and all the other murderous scumbags that fill our prisons, who take Billions of tax payers money every year, you never here the scum in that whore house they call Westminster, talking of making cutbacks on the prison costs, no too easy to hit the old and disabled, and then there is that farce of the probation service, another scam milking millions from the tax payer, there are so many scams at the top between big business and Westminster, that there really does deserve a day of reckoning from the British people, man are we not desperate for a leader to rise up from amongst us to crush the garbage we have ruling this country, when will the British people unite, and take to the streets, when will they realise that they have the real power, bloody sheep, they have become.......................
