THE mother of a boy killed by teens with a sword bought online has begged Rishi Sunak to ban sales of the lethal weapons.
Ronan Kanda, 16, was attacked as he walked home from a pal's house.
His two killers, both 16 and pupils at the same school, mistook him for a boy they were in dispute with.
One had collected the ninja sword earlier that day after buying it online using his mum's ID and credit card.
Ronan, who had just finished GCSEs, was listening to music when he was stabbed twice from behind.
The sword pierced his heart and he died near his home last June.
Shocking footage of the seconds preceding the killing was released earlier this month.
Ronan's mum Pooja, 46, has now devoted her life to campaigning against knife crime.
