Cousins are forced to dig their own GRAVE at gunpoint before being shot and set alight by rival gang in Brazil

This is the chilling moment a teenager and his cousin are forced to dig their own grave before being executed by a drugs gang in Brazil.

Wagner da Rosa, 17 and his 22-year-old cousin Victor were captured by a rival gang and taken to a woodland area near Porto Alegre.

The pair were then ordered to dig their own grave while being held at gunpoint by at least four men, who filmed the execution on their phones.

The cousins are alleged to have been members of a rival gang, but did not have any criminal convictions, police say.

One of them, believed to be Victor, can be seen smoking a cigarette while he calmly subjects himself to his fate, as a man stands next to the pit, holding a gun and a rifle.

The two young men are then shot repeatedly with rifles.

As their dead bodies like in the ground, they are doused with petrol and set alight.

Police area now investigating the horrifying murder in the the Gravatai district of the city.

Felipe Borba from the Brazilian Civil Police said they believe the pair were killed after a factional row between drugs gangs turned increasingly violent.

He said: 'The cousins had no criminal convictions. From the video we watched, it would look like a fight between factions for the drug trade.

'A young man who was near the scene of a crime with a firearm was arrested but denied involvement in the murder.

'Police are still investigating the crime and have not released the names of the gunmen. But we believe they are from a gang known as Anti-Bullet.

'The video would be an attempt to intimidate the local factions, instilling fear and intimidation into their enemies and showing that they do not feel sorry for anyone.'

A great story about a little bit of 'humanity' during a terrible war.

A great story about a little bit of 'humanity' during a terrible war. In April 1945, 2nd Lt. Peter During was a South African fighter pilot (N.7 Squadron) running missions over Italy when his Spitfire was shot down by German AA fire. He managed to crash land his plane behind enemy lines where he was immediately captured. Whilst been escorted to a German Lufwaffe Prisoner of War (POW) camp (he was a pilot and thus his interrogation and imprisonment was the responsibility of the German airforce), he opened a conversation with his captors. He was quickly able to establish that they could already see the writing on the wall, that the war was at an end and Germany would lose it. ...

He said the family were "acutely aware" there were "extremists of all sides who are keen to hijack this incident for their own ends".

The family of a man who was kicked in the head by police at Manchester Airport has appealed for "calm in all the communities", an MP has said. Paul Waugh, Rochdale MP, said the "traumatised" family wanted to make it clear they had "no political agenda whatsoever" and did not condone political violence. Anger over the video led to protests outside Rochdale police station on Wednesday and Thursday nights, with another protest also held in Manchester city centre on Thursday. Mr Waugh said the family would not be attending any protests or giving any media interviews as they wanted their privacy protected. "The strong message they wanted to give is that they have no political agenda whatsoever," he told BBC Breakfast. "They wanted me to issue an appeal for calm among all sorts of different communities in Rochdale. "We've had a history of unfortunate division in our town and we do not want to go back to those days." He said the famil...
