DJ-83-128-02/2026 (Mahkamah Majistret)

Accused's voluntary guilty plea and admitted facts rendered conviction valid under s.305 KTJ; mitigation was considered but outweighed by gravity of offences (predawn housebreaking, threats with imitation firearm, physical assault, obstruction of officers); sentences imposed were within statutory limits, reduced from maximum where appropriate, ordered to run concurrently from date of arrest to reflect proportionality and public interest in deterrence.

CB-83RS-18-03/2020 (Mahkamah Majistret)

The court convicted because the prosecution established both essential elements of Section 457 read with Section 34: physical entry into the complainant's house and intent to steal. This was proven by reliable witness testimony of co‑offender SP5 corroborated by fingerprint expert P4/P6 linking the accused's prints to items used to store the stolen money; the amended charge was lawful and not prejudicial; the accused's defence was an unsupported afterthought and did not raise a reasonable doubt.
