Any member of the public may contact the Attorney General, or the CPS directly, if they have concerns that a sentence is unduly lenient - they do not have to be involved in the case. You can find more information and contact the Attorney General here: https://www.gov.uk/ask-crown-court-sentence-review The Attorney General is responsible for referring Crown Court sentences to the Court of Appeal if he believes that a sentence may be unduly lenient.
