Danish court has sentenced a Congolese-born man to just one year in prison for beating Swedish police officer and father of two, Christian Zedig, to death, sparking widespread outrage across Europe and prompting Copenhagen to promise stricter sentencing laws.

Copenhagen City Court handed down the sentence on Wednesday, 7 October, to 31-year-old Nkumba Ludovic Tshiembe, a Danish citizen who arrived from Congo as an infant. He was also banned from nightlife establishments for one year.
