    Conviction and sentence were based on the accused's unqualified guilty plea, the factual admission and corroborating forensic evidence (two fingerprints on the threatening note) which established criminal intimidation under s.506; the sentence of three years imprisonment and RM10,000 fine was imposed to reflect the seriousness and deterrent requirement while taking into account mitigating factors (early plea, sole breadwinner, heavy indebtedness, bereavement and lack of prior record).
