- CACC134/1977
The sentence of 12 months' imprisonment was excessive for a first conviction under s.20(1) of the Societies Ordinance given the appellant's age, clear record and mitigation and because the magistrate impermissibly relied on matters not charged; the appropriate sentence is three months' imprisonment.
