On 15 July 2022 Khan was sentenced to a minimum of 16 years바카라 사이트� detention at Her Majesty바카라 사이트檚 Pleasure for the murder of Kian Tordoff. Khan was also ordered to serve a concurrent sentence of 8 years바카라 사이트� detention for wounding Matthew Page with intent. The sentencing took place at Bradford Crown Court.
Khan바카라 사이트檚 sentence was then referred to the Court of Appeal under the Unduly Lenient Sentence scheme.
On 19 October, the Court of Appeal found Khan바카라 사이트檚 original sentence to be unduly lenient and increased it to a minimum of 19 years바카라 사이트� detention at His Majesty바카라 사이트檚 Pleasure (less time spent on remand).
Speaking after the hearing, HM Attorney General Rt Hon Michael Ellis KC MP said:
바카라 사이트淭oday my thoughts are with the family of Kian Tordoff, who tragically lost his life during Sheryar Khan바카라 사이트檚 senseless and brutal attack, and also with Michael Page, who was badly injured in the attack and has been left absolutely devastated by the loss of his best friend.
바카라 사이트淚 welcome the decision of the Court of Appeal to increase the sentence which better reflects the severity of Khan바카라 사이트檚 atrocious crimes.바카라 사이트�
