http://video.news.sky.com/skynews/video/ A 'ruthless and brutal' gang of armed thugs have been found guilty of holding two men hostage after robbing the shop in which they worked. For a week, they were pistol-whipped, forced to watch torture DVDs, and told they would be shot in the head if relatives did not pay a ransom. One of them was a friend of singer Lily Allen, who was criticised for revealing details of the plot at an awards ceremony. Sky's Crime Correspondent Martin Brunt reports.
