Balancing public interest and deterrence against mitigating factors (guilty plea, first offender status, age and cooperation), the court concluded that a sentence of 10 years imprisonment (one-third of the 30-year maximum) is appropriate and lawful for possession of 73.05 grams of methamphetamine; whipping is excluded due to the accused being over fifty pursuant to CrPC s.289(3).
