The court imposed a 20-year non-parole period.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"6\"\/>The violence began after Robin had been drinking whisky with friends at his home while celebrating his brother Abhijeet Abhijeet buying a car. <!-- -->Sharwan later left the gathering to play cards at Navjeet\u2019s home without saying goodbye, prompting Robin to call and abuse him and demand that he return repeatedly.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"11\"\/>When Sharwan eventually came back with Navjeet to collect his belongings, Robin attacked him with a knife, stabbing him in the chest.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>Navjeet stepped in to help his friend but was then attacked himself. Robin grabbed him by the collar and stabbed him repeatedly as he tried to get away.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"16\"\/>Navjeet suffered fatal injuries to his heart and lungs and died. Sharwan survived.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>Justice Andrew Tinney described the attack as \u201cunprovoked and uncalled for\u201d and said Robin had acted with \u201cmurderous anger\u201d. He also described the violence as \u201cextreme and wanton\u201d, noting that the attack was carried out against innocent victims in a public setting and had caused fear in the community, as per the outlet.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>The judge also found that Robin had not demonstrated genuine remorse. <!-- -->After the attack, Robin fled Victoria with his brother and was arrested in New South Wales two days later.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"25\"\/>\u201cYour lack of regret and remorse for your offending has persisted until the present time,\u201d Justice Tinney said.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"27\"\/>Navjeet\u2019s father, Jitender Sandhu, watched the sentencing through a video link and said his son\u2019s death had destroyed the hopes and dreams of the family.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"29\"\/>Robin has spent more than two years behind bars since his arrest and is expected to face deportation to India
