The Solicitor General’s bid to increase the sentences of Britain’s youngest knife murderers for the murder of Shawn Seesahai is expected to be considered by the Court of Appeal.

The two boys, who cannot be identified, were given life sentences with minimum terms of eight-and-a-half years for the murder of 19-year-old Mr Seesahai in Wolverhampton on November 13 last year.
