Conviction for criminal intimidation under Section 506 Kanun Keseksaan is upheld and the sentence of two years' imprisonment (from date of arrest) is appropriate and lawful given the seriousness of the threat to kill, proximity of accused to victim, need to protect public and victim, accused's repeated absconding (justifying continuation of trial in absence under s.425A(3)(b) and disentitlement to mitigation), the lengthy trial, and that the sentence is within statutory limits and not excessive (less than one‑third of the 7‑year statutory maximum).
