Given the accused was a minor at the time of the offence (17), a youthful first offender, pleaded guilty and absent aggravating prior convictions, the public interest and rehabilitative goals required avoiding immediate custody; an intermediate sanction was appropriate — a fine of RM1,900 in default of four months imprisonment plus two years police supervision under s38B. This balanced deterrence and avoidance of excessive financial ruin.
