    Court of Appeal
    Case number
    CACC591/1994

    The appeal was dismissed because the evidence showed voluntary participation rather than entrapment, the applicant's absconding was voluntary and therefore not a ground to complain about lack of opportunity to make representations, and the sentence of four years was not manifestly excessive given the seriousness of the offences and the context of rampant car thefts.
