----------------- Coram: Huggins, J.A. Date of Judgment: 28th April 1976. ----------------- JUDGMENT ----------------- 1. This is an appeal against sentence. The Appellant pleaded Guilty to possession of dangerous drugs for the purpose of unlawful trafficking and to smoking a dangerous drug. The record reads:
I take that to be an absolute discharge on the second charge with a conviction recorded. 2. The Appellant advances as his only ground of appeal that he has a mother of over seventy in China whom he wishes to visit. That was the substance of his plea in mitigation in the court below. 3. The Appellant has a number of previous convictions including one for this particular offence in 1972 when he was sentenced to 18 months' imprisonment. 4. I see no reason to interfere with this sentence and the appeal is dismissed. 28th April 1976. Representation: |
