LBC confronts the Russian ambassador with a message from the family of captured Brit Shaun Pinner

He faces the death penalty after a sham trial held by the separatist authorities in the Donetsk region, who branded him a mercenary.

"Can you use your influence to allow Shaun to phone home at the very least please? This is very important to us at such a difficult time.Or could the International Committee of the Red Cross be allowed access to Shaun? They are an independent organisation, not politically motivated.Mr Kelin said: "The message has been taken, I will try to do my best to deliver it, but I can assure you that Red Cross is working constantly.

Both men were forced to beg for their lives in scripted phone calls with the media and family members.
