The Court upheld the sentencing judge's exercise of discretion: loss of long service payment was properly disregarded as mitigation given the applicant's prolonged and deliberate breach of trust; the discounts for guilty plea and time in custody abroad were within judicial discretion and not improperly generous given the applicant's conduct including efforts to avoid extradition; the total sentence of two years and two months is not manifestly excessive and leave to appeal is dismissed.
