Criminals can be physically forced into dock for sentencing under new reforms

Under new Reforms announced by the UK government, Criminals who try to evade facing justice will be forced to attend their sentencing or face longer prison sentences. The reforms will give judges the power to order an offender to attend their hearings, and custody officers will have the ability to use reasonable force to make criminals appear in court. If a criminal refuses to attend their sentencing despite a judge's order, they will face an additional two years behind bars. The changes aim to ensure that victims and their families can see justice delivered and address the offenders directly.
