[2013] EWCA Crim 1464

A sentence of three-and-a-half years' imprisonment imposed following an offender's conviction for kidnapping a 10-year-old child and inciting her to engage in sexual activity was not unduly lenient given the circumstances, which did not fit within the sentencing guidelines and included a relatively short duration kidnap and the fact that no sexual activity had taken place.
