Rejected petition Life in jail MEANS LIFE IN JAIL!

More details

I am fed up of reading the papers and seeing that someone has been sentenced to life in jail for murder. Then i see that in the next sentence, it says "(s)he will be available for release AFTER 10 YEARS." That's not life in jail. Life in jail is life without parole. That is what i want the government to introduce.
