Nottingham killer's sentence to be reviewed, minister says

Nottingham killer Valdo Calocane will be “locked up for the rest of his life,” a Tory minister has said as talks are underway to review his sentence.

Gareth Davies said there was a process to refer the case to the Attorney General but it "was not appropriate" for him to comment on a specific case.

Court of Appeal refuses to change sentence of Calocane

The Court of Appeal has refused to change the sentence of Valdo Calocane, who killed three people in Nottingham last summer.

Asylum seeker sentenced to life for revenge terror killing

A Moroccan asylum seeker has been sentenced to life in jail for murder, with a minimum term of 45 years, at Teesside Crown Court. In October last year, 45-year-old Ahmed Alid stabbed Iranian Christian convert Javed Nouri at the house he was sharing with other asylum seekers before looking for more victims in Hartlepool town centre. He then stabbed and killed 70-year-old Terence Carney who was out for his regular early morning walk. Alid told police he had committed his crimes out of “revenge” for Israel killing children in the Palestinian conflict. Report by Jonesia.
