Aamir Siddiqi murder: Family left with 'emotional scars'

Two hitmen who stabbed a Cardiff teenager to death in front of his parents after targeting the wrong house have lost their appeals.

Ben Hope, 40, and Jason Richards, 39, were jailed last year for a minimum of 40 years for killing 17-year-old student Aamir Siddiqi in 2010.

Both lost appeals against sentence. Richards lost his conviction appeal.

Aamir's sister Miriam said the family has been left with emotional and psychological scars following his murder.
