[2008] EWCA Crim 2650
Where account had implicitly been taken of evidence and sufficient reasons given for rejecting it, property which was the subject matter of the evidence could be part of the recoverable amount in a confiscation order. A term of four years' imprisonment in default was inappropriate where the recoverable amount was at the low end of the bracket for which the maximum term in default was five years' imprisonment.
