The single-judge decision dismissing leave is based on the finding that the offences on 4 and 6 June 2002 were separate and independent despite the same victim, the judge properly exercised sentencing discretion by applying reduced guilty-plea discounts because the applicant absconded for over 11 years, and ordering the sentence for failure to surrender consecutively did not constitute impermissible double counting; the total aggregate sentence was appropriate and within lawful sentencing principles.
