Nowak killer gets 25 years

The Court of Appeal increased Vickrum Digwa’s minimum term for murdering 18-year-old Henry Nowak in Southampton from 21 to 25 years. The judges said the original sentence was unduly lenient, citing the repeated use of a large dagger and the cruelty and obstruction that followed; after time on remand is deducted, Digwa must serve at least 24 years and 190 days before parole consideration. Digwa’s challenge to his sentence was refused, while his separate appeal against his conviction will be decided later.
