1. On 23 February 2009, the applicant pleaded guilty to one count of rape before Deputy Judge Line, as he then was, in the Court of First Instance. Taking as his starting point a term of 15 years’ imprisonment and applying a discount to give effect to the guilty plea, the judge sentenced the applicant to 10 years’ imprisonment. The applicant sought leave to appeal that sentence on the single ground that it was manifestly excessive.
