The four year sentence for robbery was manifestly inadequate given the invasion of a private dwelling in the small hours, restraint and gagging of a 78 year old victim, gang involvement and ransacking; applying the relevant guideline and limited plea discount the robbery sentence must be increased to five years, to run consecutively to the 15 month sentence for remaining in Hong Kong illegally, yielding an effective total of six years and three months.
