St Albans man sentenced for manslaughter in pub incident
Local father died after unprovoked attack outside pub
Kieran Lettin, a 45-year-old man from St Albans, has been sentenced to four years and 10 months in prison for manslaughter following an incident that led to the death of Rabindra Bullyram, a father of two.
The altercation occurred outside Waterend Barn on St Peter’s Street, where Lettin was involved in a physical confrontation after being asked to leave due to disruptive behaviour.
Rabindra Bullyram, who was not involved in the initial altercation, attempted to calm the situation by offering Lettin a drink, but was unprovokedly punched, resulting in severe injuries that led to his death months later.
Lettin was arrested for GBH initially, but the charges were upgraded to manslaughter following developments in the case.
A victim impact statement from Rabindra's son highlighted the tragic consequences of the incident, describing his father as a kind and knowledgeable man who touched many lives.
Detective Constable Angharad Millet expressed gratitude for Rabindra's family's cooperation during the investigation and emphasized the devastating effects a single punch can have.
