[2007] EWCA Crim 2994

Where the offender had taken part in the robbery of a 73-year-old woman at knifepoint outside her home but was not the principal offender, and where an element of duress had been pleaded in relation to his participation in the offence, a sentence of six years and six months' imprisonment was manifestly excessive and was reduced to one of four years.
