Supreme Court of Fiji |
Fiji Islands - Ali, R v Reginam - Pacific Law Materials IN THE SUPREME COURT OF FIJI
APPELLATE JURISDICTION
CRIMINAL APPEAL No. 57 of 1977
RAFIQ ALI
s/o Jaffar Ali
Appellantv
REGINAM
Respondent
JUDGMENT
The appellant was convicted by the Magistrate's Court Suva on his own plea of larceny and was sentenced to 12 months' imprisonment. The value of the property stolen was $114.
He now appeals against the severity of sentence.
I have heard all that he has had to say in support of his appeal but find no merit in it. In view of his unsavoury record the sentence is a proper one. The appeal is dismissed.
