BREAKING: Killers who decapitated DPD delivery driver in cartel-style execution jailed

Two twisted killers who executed a DPD driver and "chopped" him in the head with an axe in broad daylight have been jailed for the cartel-style murder.

Sehajpal Singh and Mehakdeep Singh have been handed a life sentence for the sickening crime. It comes after Aurman Singh, from Smethwick, was ambushed by a group of armed thugs wearing masks.

The evil mob attacked the worker with an axe, club, wooden stave, metal bar, hockey stick, shovel, knife and bat.

The 23-year-old tried outrun his killers but 'within seconds' he had been chopped at and hacked to death with an arsenal of weapons.
