[2008] EWCA Crim 2936

A minimum term of three years' imprisonment following the imposition of a life sentence for an offence of murder was unduly lenient and was increased to 10 years. Whilst that was a relatively low term it had to be fixed by reference to the minimum term imposed on a co-defendant of 14 years.
