British national, Michael Hann, was tragically lynched in Ecuador after being accused of killing his friend, Rodrigo Chavez, in a business dispute. The incident unfolded when enraged villagers stormed the police station where Hann was detained, proceeding to drag him out and set him on fire. Shockingly, the authorities were unable to intervene and prevent the brutal mob violence. The UK Foreign Office is currently engaged in the process of verifying the identity of the victim in this horrific incident.
