The Court held that while the offence was very serious and required a deterrent sentence, the appropriate starting point for this single offence was 10 years (not 12), the applicant was entitled to the one-third discount for a guilty plea and a further modest reduction for age and clear record, resulting in a sentence of 6 years' imprisonment.
