The Court refused to interfere with the sentence because, applying established sentencing principles and the need for deterrence in illegal immigration cases, the sentence of three years and eleven months was appropriate and in fact lenient; the applicant's family and coercion claims were insufficient to justify reduction despite the trial judge's failure to state the starting point explicitly.
