Ed: Vigilantes have become folk heroes to mobs of adoring fans.
A vigilante dad who gunned down a judge who headed the paedophile gang that raped his daughter has been urged to give himself up after police arrested the next pervert on his hit list.
Furious Drasius Keyds, 37, has been compared to the Charles Bronson character in the Death Wish films after he took the law into his own hands and shot dead a judge and then a female fixer that delivered her to the perverts.
He snapped after years of trying to get justice for his three-year-old daughter Deimantela in Kaunus, Lithuania.
Now after months on the run, police have appealed for Keyds to come home to his daughter after they arrested the final surviving member of the gang and pledged to prosecute.
Businessman Andrius Usas is facing trial this week for sexually molesting the youngster, say prosecutors.
Since the shootings Keyds has gone into hiding and has become a hero on YouTube and Facebook with hundreds of thousands of fans from all over the world pledging support.
"You are a hero to all of us," reads one Facebook message. "What you did is nothing but justice."
Mugs and t-shirts with his image on them have begun appearing alongside the logo "Drasius: Lone Avenger".
"We hope Keyds can come home to his family now justice is being done. He has explaining to do and maybe some charges but he has to give himself up," said a prosecutors' spokesman.
