[2025] EWCA Crim 1237

For the reasons we have given, we grant the application by the Solicitor General under section 36 of the 1988 Act. We give leave to refer the sentences to this court on the ground that they were unduly lenient. We find that they were unduly lenient in the respects with which we have dealt. We quash the sentences below to the extent that we have mentioned and we substitute the new sentences which we have set out above.

We direct that the offender must surrender to custody at Martlesham Police Station by 12 noon tomorrow, 12 September 2025. I am sure that he will understand the consequences if he does not surrender according to that order.

MR DYBLE: Certainly, my Lord.

LORD JUSTICE SINGH: Thank you all very much.
