The magistrate correctly applied established sentencing principles—an overstayer possessing forged identity documents for employment warrants a sentence of 15 months, and producing the forged ID to police is an aggravating factor—therefore the imposed 15 months effective imprisonment was appropriate and the appeal against sentence is dismissed.
