A start point of five years' imprisonment for aggravated robbery was appropriate given the violence and kidnapping; a 20% overall mitigation discount was justified for upbringing, rehabilitation, remorse and restorative willingness, reducing the finite sentence to four years; an MPI of 50% was set; because this is a second‑strike offence the sentence must be served in full without parole.
