A 15-year-old girl who was raped by two teenage boys has expressed her dismay at the lenient sentences they received.

The boys, who were also minors at the time of the attack, were spared jail.

The judge's decision to avoid 'criminalising' the boys has been criticized by the victim, who feels that it downplays the severity of the crime.

The attorney general has announced a review of the sentence, which has sparked debate about the treatment of juvenile offenders in the UK.
