Criminal law

Case summary

The court held that the appellant had correctly been placed at the scene of the crime and the identification factors were all favorable. That there was no error in the identification of the appellant. That as the judge didn’t consider the time spent on remand while sentencing, the appellate court would invoke her inherent powers and consider the time spent on remand and sentence accordingly.
