In an appeal against a 15-month sentence for offences of affray and violent disorder, the appellant had a legitimate sense of grievance in view of the fact that there was clear disparity between the sentences of the appellant and his co-accused, and accordingly the original sentence was substituted with a term of nine months' imprisonment.
