Three appeal judges concluded that Adnan Ali’s total sentence should be reduced to three years. Ali, 37, who entered not guilty pleas, had been convicted of five counts of sex assault and 15 counts of misconduct in public office after a trial at Liverpool Crown Court earlier this year.
Judge Dennis Watson handed him jail sentences of between two and three years for each sex assault, and five years for each misconduct offence.
The trial judge had said all sentences would run concurrently – making a total of five years.
