London: A British court has sentenced a 17-year-old boy to 52 years’ imprisonment. However, he is now 18 years old at the time of sentencing. But at the time of the crime the criminal was only 17 years old. At such a young age, he had committed a heart-wrenching incident, due to which the court has given him such a severe punishment.
Let us tell you that last July, a criminal had stabbed three schoolgirls to death in a Taylor Swift themed yoga and dance workshop in Southport, North-Western England. He had also confessed to the crime. On Thursday, the 18-year-old attacker was sentenced to life imprisonment for this crime. Under this, he will be sentenced to a minimum of 52 years before being considered for parole. Axel Rudakubana (who was 17 at the time of the fatal attack) also admitted murdering yoga instructor Leanne Lucas and businessman John Hayes, as well as eight other children aged seven to 13, at Heart Space in Southport. Had tried.
Had the age increased by one more year, the criminal would never have been able to come out of jail.
Justice Julian Goose, presiding over the sentencing hearing at Liverpool Crown Court, said that if Rudakubana had been 18 at the time of the attack he would have received a life sentence, which would have meant there was no possibility of his release. Justice Goose said, “He will have to spend his entire life in custody.” I think he will probably never be released and will remain in custody for the rest of his life.
