UK teen gets 35 years of imprisonment for devil-pact double murder

• Hussein stabbed to death Bibaa Henry and Nicole Smallman in a savage attack in Wembley's Fryent Park last year.
• With the dual-murder, he fulfilled his side of a "contract" with a demon which he had signed using his own blood.
• Police believe only a hand injury Hussein suffered during the murders prevented him from carrying out further killings.

LONDON: A British teenager was sentenced to a minimum of 35 years of imprisonment for murdering two sisters in a London park under a pact he believed he had signed with the demonic forces to kill women every six months for an eventual lottery win.

Danyal Hussein, now 19, stabbed to death Bibaa Henry, 46, and Nicole Smallman, 27, in a savage attack in a country park in northwest London in June last year after they had celebrated Henry's birthday with friends.

Hussein had carried out the murders to fulfil his side of a "contract" with the demon "Mighty King Lucifuge Rofocale", which he signed using his own blood, promising to "perform a minimum of six sacrifices every six months for as long as I am free and physically capable".

The close sisters had gone to Wembley's Fryent Park to celebrate with friends but stayed alone into the early hours. They took 150 photos, with the last "haunting" picture showing them looking sideways at what police believe was the arrival of Hussein.

"Hussein is a dangerous, arrogant and violent individual who from the outset has shown no remorse or acceptance of his actions," said Maria Green, a detective inspector in London's Metropolitan Police.

"I hope that knowing he will now spend many years behind bars will bring a small degree of comfort to Bibaa and Nicole's loved ones."

Hussein stabbed Henry eight times and Smallman suffered 28 wounds. After the murders, he dragged the bodies into woodland where they were found intertwined the following day by Smallman's boyfriend.

The teenager, who lived with his mother, was traced by bloodstains found at the scene and was arrested almost four weeks later. The police believe only a hand injury he suffered during the murders prevented him from carrying out further killings.
