The Court refused leave to appeal and held the trial judge did not err: the 7-year sentence was not manifestly excessive given the applicant's central organising role in a prolonged, well-planned kidnapping for ransom; time spent in foreign custody resisting extradition is relevant but not necessarily fully creditable; differences in co-conspirators' sentences were justifiable by differing roles and culpability.
