[2007] EWCA Crim 955

A judge had been wrong to conclude that an offence of arson being reckless as to whether life was endangered had fallen within the ambit of a sentence of life imprisonment, but had been correct in finding that the offender met the test of dangerousness under the Criminal Justice Act 2003 s.229.
