The Vestre Landsret overturned the byret's original sentencing decision, increasing the term of imprisonment to five years and six months. The defendant was convicted of aggravated robbery resulting in serious bodily harm, arguing for a lighter penalty based on specific mitigating circumstances. The court rejected these arguments, holding that the severity of the injury and the use of a weapon warranted a harsher punishment than initially imposed.
