An electrician jailed over the death of a seven-year-old boy has lost a bid to reduce his sentence at the Court of Appeal.
Colin Naylor, 74, was handed a sentence of 12 months in prison after Harvey Tyrrell suffered a fatal electric shock in the garden of the King Harold pub in Romford, east London.
Harvey was electrocuted when he touched poorly installed outdoor lights on a low wall in the garden on the afternoon of September 11 2018.
Naylor, who had installed the lights three months earlier, was found not guilty of manslaughter by gross negligence by a jury at Snaresbrook Crown Court.
