The court accepted the accused's guilty plea as valid and having considered mitigating factors granted credit for the early plea but concluded that statute s.39A(2) mandates a minimum custodial sentence of five years for the prescribed amount; balancing mitigation against public interest and deterrence the court imposed the minimum five-year imprisonment starting from date of arrest and exempted whipping because the offender was female under procedural provision.
