Guatemala, May 24: A 16-year-old girl was mercilessly beaten and burned to death by a group of vigilante mob in Guatemala.

The incident reportedly took place in the village of Rio Bravo, near the capital Guatemala City.

The video, which was uploaded on YouTube was viewed several times before it was finally removed.

The anonymous girl, accused of killing a 68-year-old taxi driver, reportedly took a wrong turn after she and members of her biker gang fled the scene of the killing. However, she was caught by the mob.

In the video, which was widely circulated in Guatemala, the girl can be seen completely dazed and bleeding profusely as she was being kicked and punched. After she was viciously beaten, the mob set her on fire alive. As she screamed and withered in pain, the mob cheered and watched on.

According to reports, when the police tried to intervene they were stopped by the bystanders.

AstraZeneca to withdraw Covid-19 vaccine globally as demand dips after admitting side effects

AstraZeneca said on Tuesday it had initiated the worldwide withdrawal of its COVID-19 vaccine due to a "surplus of available updated vaccines" since the pandemic.

The company also said it would proceed to withdraw the vaccine Vaxzevria's marketing authorizations within Europe.

"As multiple, variant Covid-19 vaccines have since been developed there is a surplus of available updated vaccines," the company said, adding that this had led to a decline in demand for Vaxzevria, which is no longer being manufactured or supplied.

According to media reports, the Anglo-Swedish drugmaker has previously admitted in court documents that the vaccine causes side-effects such as blood clots and low blood platelet counts.

The firm's application to withdraw the vaccine was made on March 5 and came into effect on May 7, according to the Telegraph, which first reported the development.

London-listed AstraZeneca began moving into respiratory syncytial virus vaccines and obesity drugs through several deals last year after a slowdown in growth as COVID-19 medicine sales declined.
