The facts admitted on the guilty plea and the victim's statement did not establish use of force or overcoming of resistance required by s10(1) Theft Ordinance; therefore the conviction for robbery was unlawful and had to be quashed and the sentence set aside; retrial or substitution was inappropriate given the conviction on plea and time already served.
