Karl Nuku, 19, and Mikail Pandey-Johnson, 24, were sentenced in the High Court at New Plymouth today after being found guilty of murdering Dean Browne in a Wellington flat in January last year.
On the instructions of Pandey-Johnson, the leader of a drug-dealing group calling themselves the Killer Clown Fiends, Nuku repeatedly struck Mr Browne over the head with a hammer before his body was dumped in the garage of a New Plymouth house.
