The Court held that the offence of escape from legal custody was independent of the other offences and that the magistrate's imposition of a concurrent three‑month sentence for escape was inadvertent; the sentence for escape must run consecutively to the concurrent sentences for the other offences, and the Attorney General's application is allowed.
