ABDUL HOFUR

Court accepted guilty pleas as mitigating but found aggravating factors (victim vulnerability, offender being foreign national, seriousness of repeated offences). Sentences must reflect public interest and deterrence within statutory maxima. Consequently the court convicted and imposed nine years imprisonment and one stroke for each count, to run concurrently, plus counselling during imprisonment under s.26 AKSTK and two years police supervision under s.27 AKSTK.
