Susan Kohli, whose father, Bhim Kohli, died after being assaulted by two teenagers while walking his dog near his home in Braunstone Town, Leicestershire, has called for harsher sentences than they received in June.

"We need to go to parliament to get these guidelines changed, to hold these youths responsible for what they do," she said. "We should not have to lose somebody else to these youngsters."
