alexandria athanansios vs republic 2023 tzca 17498 11 august 2023

The application for review was dismissed because the alleged errors were not manifest errors on the face of the record but were grounds already determined in the appeal. The applicant was improperly seeking a rehearing of the appeal, which is not the function of review under Rule 66(1). No miscarriage of justice was found, and the enhancement of sentence was lawful as it addressed an illegal sentence.
