The court held that the remand period must be taken into account when fixing the sentence; having imposed the maximum imprisonment permitted under Section 43 of the Societies Act 1966 and a near‑maximum fine, and given that the accused's remand was not credited by the prosecution, the appeal by the Public Prosecutor against the sentence was dismissed and the sentence stands backdated to the date of arrest (20 June 2021).
