A 33-year-old man who was jailed for life after a string of random attacks, including slitting the throat of a 10-year-old boy, has had his sentence increased, it has been reported.
Carlos Vinodchandra Racitalal, had targeted his victims at various locations in Leicester in January, this year. Last month, he was found guilty of four counts of attempted murder and Racitalal, formerly of Finsbury Road, Leicester, was sentenced to life imprisonment with a minimum term of 21 years and six months. On Wednesday at Leicester Crown Court, the term was increased to 29 years and six months, the BBC reported.
On 18 January, he targeted a 10-year-old boy who "came within millimetres of death" when he received 10cm (4in) deep gash to his neck as he stood outside his house.
Racitalal handed himself in two days later, after CCTV of the attacks was released on social media.
