In this particular case it would be wise to see what the "breach" may have been, but also you must bear in mind that there are those out there who know how mobs behave on a collective, and going by some of the posts here they are right, and we must also remember that we are in a run up to a general election. For the moment becoming a conspiracy theorist, what better way for politicians to ingraciate themselves with a jaded public than to make an apparent decision that panders to a baying mob?
Were this to happen, and I have no evidence that anyone is doing this for that motive, then they would be no better than the ceasers throwing bread into a crowd before the gladitorial games of ancient Rome.

They commited murder, thats a crime against society, society can feel agrieved. Whilst it is true that we dont yet know why he has been sent to jail (they werent jailed before but, because of their age, held in Local Authority secure accomodation). Lots of people feel that the sentence they received(min 8 years) was insufficient.
The reasons being 10 year olds commiting so callous a murder shocked people. Mind its not the first time children of that age have commited murder and it wasnt the last.
To suggest that its a political move is quite cynical, he must have done something relatively serious in the conditions of his licence to breech it. If he didnt and it was relatively trivial, it would soon come out and then the Ministry of Justice would be looking at a nice court case.
