Two teenage boys in the UK, aged 15, were sentenced to four years in custody after an appeal court determined that their previous non-custodial sentences for raping two teenage girls were excessively lenient. The boys were found guilty of assaulting victims who were 14 and 15 years old, and the court noted that they had even posted videos of their actions on social media.

The original ruling, which did not include prison time, sparked public outrage and led to calls for a re-evaluation of the consequences faced by the offenders. The families of the victims expressed relief at the new decision, viewing it as a form of justice. The appeal court's ruling aimed to ensure that the seriousness of the offenses was adequately reflected in the punishment given to the boys.
