BREAKING The last of Aya Hachem's killers, Lewis Otway, has been sentenced to life in prison
If Otway was closer to the heart of the conspiracy the defence says he would have been in contact with those immediately responsible.
Ayaz Hussain was jailed for a minimum of 32 years. The defence say Hussain had a hands on role on the day of the shooting, which creates a distinction between his culpability and Otway's. The defence also says the gun was sourced by Ennis and Raja, who travelled to Liverpool together to do that.The defence says murder with a firearm has to be sentenced on that basis but there is distance between Otway and the firearm and the shooting itself. There is no evidence he had a controlling or supervisory role on the day of the shooting.It is accepted Otway was in Blackburn that day, but he was not with the 'central characters' in the murder plot, who were together in a car.
