    Given the prolonged period of offending (2012–2019), the very large aggregate losses running into millions with victims unrecompensed, the separate transactions and victims across nine counts, and absence of efforts to restitute victims, the court imposed substantive individual sentences for each count: two years' imprisonment, two strokes and RM10,000 fine (or six months default) per count; the custodial terms to run consecutively. Health mitigation reduced extent of corporal punishment but did not justify concurrent or wholly lenient sentences.
