Two Feltham men who helped kill a father-of-two in Wales for allegedly stealing cannabis plants have today been handed seven-year sentences.

Than Van Le, 32, and Cong Van Le, 50, both of Canterbury Road, were jailed for manslaughter along with their boss Quynh Van Huynh, 51, following a four-month trial at Cardiff Crown Court.

Tran Nguyen, 44, was driven to London for a punishment beating and then dumped fatally-injured in a Welsh hospital in November 2006, two months after arriving in the UK .

The gang, who all denied murder, had accused the father-of-two of stealing plants from the cannabis factory he tended in Newport, south Wales.

Bac Phuong Nguyen, 30, of no fixed abode, Son Van Nhu, 24, of Canterbury Road, Feltham, and Paul Harrison, 36, of Davenport Road, south-east London, were cleared of all charges at the end of the trial earlier this month.
