SYDNEY - The companion of a British man murdered in Australia, Mr Brian Hagland, yesterday described how he was beaten to death by "a robot". Australian police issued artist sketches in their hunt for two men who approached Mr Hagland near Sydney's Bondi Beach. Ms Connie Casey (25) and Mr Hagland (28), a cousin of EastEnders star Sid Owen, were approached by two young men thought to be high on drugs.
