The magistrate's partially suspended sentence was unlawful because Hong Kong law does not permit suspension of only part of a sentence; the lawful course was to quash the sentence and substitute a lawful sentence — here two years' imprisonment wholly suspended for two years on condition the appellant seeks voluntary treatment or enters a methadone maintenance programme.
