Are you sure it's not Section 47 ABH?

ummmm

My cousin has just been sent down for 4 months for ABH. Even though the CCTV footage clearly showed the bloke hitting him first.

Hi babygirlemma. I believe it is a section 47 assault or ABH that you are referring to. They carry up to 5 years. It depends upon many factors and i would take a look at the following link: http://cps.gov.uk/legal/s_to_u/sentencing_manu al/actual_bodily_harm/
The positive policing policy will mean that the police may proceed without a witness if they already have sufficient evidence to gain a prosecution.
