The father of a young man murdered by Kyle Clifford\u2019s brother has described the siblings as \u2018evil\u2019. <\/p>\n

Bradley Clifford mowed down Soban Khan, 18, as he was riding pillion on a scooter in 2017. He then beat him up as he lay dying on the street. <\/p>\n

Seven years later, his younger brother Kyle, now 26, murdered his ex-girlfriend Louise Hunt, 25, and her sister Hannah, 28 with a crossbow and killed their mother Carol, 61, with a knife at the family home in Bushey, in Hertfordshire.<\/p>\n

Before the killings, which took place in July last year, he phoned his brother in prison to tell him about buying the crossbow. <\/p>\n

After Kyle was sentenced to a whole life term in prison <\/a>earlier this week at Cambridge Crown Court, Louise and Hannah\u2019s father, BBC commentator John Hunt spoke of his devastation in a moving witness impact statement. <\/p>\n

Now, Soban\u2019s dad Najam Khan has told of his anguish at seeing another family torn apart as well as the revulsion he feels towards the brothers.<\/p>\n

Speaking to the MailOnline<\/a>, he said: \u2018Our whole family were very, very upset by this. We hate these brothers over what happened.\u2019<\/p>\n

Mr Khan said the Clifford siblings were \u2018evil men who the public will need protecting from forever\u2019.<\/p>\n

Najam Khan said his family were \u2018very, very upset\u2019 to hear about the Hunt family murder<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

He added: \u2018My son was innocent when he was murdered and now another three innocent people have been murdered too.\u2019<\/p>\n

During Bradley\u2019s trial at the Old Bailey, the court heard he was driving his \u00a335,000 Ford Mustang outside a bar in Enfield when he passed Soban and his friend, Jahshua Francis, then 19, who were on a scooter.<\/p>\n

He claimed Soban then threw a bottle at the vehicle, something Mr Kahn says did not happen.<\/p>\n

What is not disputed is that Bradley proceeded to chase after the two men with this car, before crashing into them. <\/p>\n

The force of the collision sent both Jahshua, who was driving, and pillion passenger Soban into the air and onto the tarmac. <\/p>\n

Bradley then ran over to Soban and punched and kicked him several times as he lay motionless on the ground.<\/p>\n

Jahshua was hurt but survived, but Soban later died. <\/p>\n

Bradley had previously texted his girlfriend on WhatsApp sayingthat he would put a knife down the throats and \u2018rain hell\u2019 on anyone who interfered with his car. <\/p>\n

Mr Khan said his son had just finished his A-levels and was about to start university when he was killed.<\/p>\n

He described the teenager as a \u2018bright\u2019 and \u2018very good boy\u2019, who was popular, good at sports and dreamed of starting his own business.<\/p>\n

He said he has suffered three heart attacks since the death of his child and his wife has given up her job as a designer and now often sits at her son\u2019s grave and prays.<\/p>\n

Mr Khan said Bradley should have told police his brother had bought a crossbow, but it was clear they both had \u2018criminal minds\u2019.<\/p>\n

During Kyle\u2019s case, the court heard how Louise had written a list of reasons why she had ended her relationship with Kyle and among them was the fact he did not find the killing of Soban \u2018horrendous\u2019 and continued to regularly visit his brother in jail.<\/p>\n

She also wrote that Kyle believed he had a higher IQ than Louise\u2019s family and that he found his father\u2019s and his brother\u2019s violence \u2018funny\u2019.<\/p>\n

Bradley, who is now 30, must serve at least 23 years in prison, but Mr Khan said the killer was already pushing for his sentence to be reduced a year into his sentence.<\/p>\n

He said his family will not feel safe if he is released and plans to ask police \u2018keep an eye on (the brothers) forever and give them a lesson\u2019. <\/p>\n
