Omission of the express words 'Universiti Malaya' in the charge did not prejudice Perayu's ability to defend; the prosecution adduced sufficient evidence to satisfy the elements of cheating under s420 (dishonest inducement causing delivery of money and resulting loss); absence of witness Vijayan was not fatal as he was not a material witness whose omission made the prosecution case unsustainable; sentencing was within lawful range and properly considered aggravating and mitigating factors, therefore conviction and sentence were affirmed and prosecution's cross-appeal on sentence was dismissed.
