A man convicted of murdering Toyah Cordingley is appealing his conviction and sentence, with the matter heard in a Brisbane court. Rajwinder Singh was sentenced to life in prison, and he now seeks to have the outcome overturned.
Multiple outlets report that Singh’s appeal challenges both the murder conviction and the length of his sentence. 7News Australia states he received a life term with a non-parole period of 25 years. Other coverage adds that Singh argues his trial was fatally flawed, including claims connected to a dispute involving a juror that the court dismissed.
While the outlets agree on the core facts—Singh’s appeal, the original conviction for Cordingley’s murder, and the Brisbane court proceedings—some differ in emphasis. Several focus on the appeal against conviction and sentence, while others specifically highlight the juror-dispute claim as a key basis for why the trial should be regarded as defective.
