1. This is an appeal against a sentence of 2 ½ years' imprisonment for robbery. It was, as the learned judge said, a type of offence which is all too prevalent at the present time. Three men, including this Appellant, entered a lift and there robbed two other passengers. Fortunately the caretaker of the building was very much on the qui vive and he took steps to stop the escape of the culprits. However, they forced him to open the main door of the building, but the Appellant was caught outside.
