The High Court held that the offences were not part of a single transaction and therefore the one transaction rule did not apply; section 39C DDA mandated a minimum five‑year term and permitted whipping up to three strokes, and having correctly applied sections 282 and 292 CPC the sentencing judge permissibly directed the five‑year term to run consecutively to the existing three‑year sentence; the appellant's disability did not warrant reduction of corporal punishment under the facts, so there was no appealable error.
