The court held that, applying the Child Act 2001 and sentencing principles for juveniles, the imposed non-custodial orders (120 hours community service within 6 months, guardian to provide RM1000 good behaviour bond for two years, monthly police reporting for one year, nightly curfew 8pm–6am for one year, and a non-contact order under Section 93) were lawful, proportionate and appropriate given the offender’s age, first-offence status, guilty plea, rehabilitation prospects and public interest; thus the sentence was reasonable and set aside no further modification by this court.
