Leave to appeal was granted and the appeal allowed in part: the Court concluded the judge's sentencing method was lawful but her order did not clearly reflect her intended totality; accordingly the order was varied so that 9 years of the 11‑year term run concurrently with the 12‑year term and 2 years consecutively, giving an overall total sentence of 14 years imprisonment; this reflects proper application of the totality principle, appropriate starting point for nearly 6.853 kg heroin, and the judge's mitigation allowances.
