manchestereveningnews.co.ukJamie Barrow, from Clifton, who brutally murdered a family by setting their flat on fire, has had his minimum prison term reduced.
Originally handed a 44-year sentence in July 2023 for the devastating crime against Fatoumatta Hydara and her daughters Naeemah Drammeh and Fatimah Drammeh, now after an appeal, the Court of Appeal at the Royal Courts of Justice in London have ruled that 38 years would be a more appropriate time period.
