The court held that the conviction and sentence (fine RM2000, default 3 months imprisonment) and the ancillary orders cancelling the licence and forfeiting the vessel, equipment and sale proceeds were within statutory powers under the Fisheries Act 1985 and were lawful, not manifestly excessive; a stay of execution was granted pending appeal on the condition the vessel remain in the custody of the Department of Fisheries and the appellant be permitted periodic supervised engine-starting.
