Two months' imprisonment was not manifestly excessive on the facts, but because the magistrate had repeatedly and expressly led the appellant to expect no imprisonment a legitimate expectation was created; that promise was breached and the custodial sentences were therefore unsafe and must be set aside and replaced with fines of HK$5,000 per offence.
