A brutal attack on a 9 year old and his 11 year old uncle took place on 4th April, it was carried out by two brothers of only 12 and 10 years of age. The two victims were subjected to a “horrific, violent, sustained physical attack” said prosecutors, they were tortured, robbed and sexually abused, the attackers using bricks, sticks and a noose, one of the boys is suspected of having a sink smashed against his head and the father of the 9 year old suspects his son was forced to eat glass. No doubt these were a series of shocking events, it is rare to see such young children resort to such violence and this event has been compared to the murder to James Bulger in 1993 by two 10 year olds.

A more developed version was later published by Shift magazine. The original argued broadly that the camp should adopt anti-capitalist, anti-authoritarian principles and objectives.
