Court

Court of Appeal

CACC322/1975

It is inappropriate to impose police supervision in addition to detention in a training centre because release is already subject to after-care supervision; therefore the sentence of two years' police supervision was quashed and substituted with an absolute discharge.

LEUNG CHI-HUNG v. THE QUEEN
Court

Court of Appeal
Case number

CACC115/1975

Because after-care supervision by the training centre operates on release, it is inappropriate to impose a concurrent police supervision order; therefore the two-year police supervision sentence was quashed and an absolute discharge substituted; the application for leave to appeal was dismissed.
