A man who choked his sister to death after an argument at a caravan park has been given a life sentence at the Court of Appeal.

After pleading guilty to manslaughter by diminished responsibility, in December 2022 he was handed an extended sentence of ten years – made up of a five-year custodial term and five years on extended licence.
