Teenager falsely accused of rape beaten to death by gang

Luke Harwood, 18, was punched and kicked to death by the gang, who planned to slice off his fingers and pull out his teeth so the body could not be identified. The victim, who was 5ft 7ins tall and weight just seven stone, had the misfortune to move into a council house when Alice Hall, who made the false allegation, was there, the Old Bailey heard. Even though the case had been dropped, Hall claimed again that she had been attacked by Harwood, the court was told. Her sister Emma Hall, 21, and four friends killed Mr Harwood by 'punching and kicking and stamping on his head many times,' said prosecutor Simon Denison. The victim was taken to a stream where he was killed on the bank. His body was covered with a mattress. The gang planned to return to mutilate the body.
