    The accused was a victim-mule who handed her ATM card to obtain a loan and lacked active collusion or overt acts to assist concealment; as a first offender with serious personal mitigation and no benefit from the proceeds, proportionality and public interest required a non-custodial or nominal custodial sanction; therefore she was convicted and sentenced to a fine of RM500 in default of two months imprisonment.
