    HCMA172/2021

    The Court upheld the trial judge's adoption of a 9-month sentencing starting point for participation as a triad member, accepted a 3-month deduction for serious prosecutorial delay, and concluded the resulting 6-month immediate imprisonment was not in principle wrong or manifestly excessive; family hardship and later material did not justify further reduction or non-custodial disposal.
