Killers urinated on victim, 44, and posed for photo with foot on his chest like trophy after luring him to his death
Sick gang bound and gagged Alberts Volkausks before beating him to death as they laughed in Boston, Lincolnshire
FIVE killers lured a 44-year-old man to a house where they bound and beat him to death - laughing as they urinated on him and posed for a photo.
Alberts Volkausks suffered 10 broken ribs, a broken leg, a broken arm and severe brain injuries as his attackers kicked and stamped on him and pummelled him with metal weight training bar at the house in Boston, Lincs.
Neighbours called the police after they overheard the gang talking about what they had done and Alberts was rushed to hospital.
But he died the next day from his injuries, which also included internal bleeding due to a ruptured spleen.
Three men - Mindaugas Cerneckas, 30, Andrius Barauskas, 39, and Donatos Dektiariovas, 37 - were jailed for life for his murder at Nottingham Crown Court yesterday.
Two others - Pavel Grunt-Meyer, 30, and Tawtvydas Vainolavicius, 20 - were sentenced to 14 and 12 years each for manslaughter.
Judge Jeremy Baker said: “Mr Volkausks was knocked to the ground and his legs were tied up.
“He was kicked, stamped on, urinated on and attacked with a metal weight lifting bar.

“His feet and mouth were bound with duct tape.
"It was apparent the fatal injuries to his chest and abdomen had been inflected straight away.”
Dektiariovas took photos of Mr Volkausks on the floor as Andrius Barauskas placed his foot on his chest – as if he were a wild animal killed on safari.
Senior investigating officer Det Chief Insp Karl Whiffen said: "Through a comprehensive investigation we were able to build strong cases against the convicted men and hold them accountable for their actions, which were quite simply deplorable.
"What has become clear throughout this trial is that these men are dangerous and displayed a level of violence that thankfully is incredibly rare.
“The jury has found that all five men played a part in the violent murder of Alberts Volkausks and I am pleased that justice has been served.”
