###### Case summary
The court held that the decision of the court will only be interfered with if it is reached on a wrong principle of law or overlooked some material factor or the sentence is manifestly excessive. That as the trial judge didn’t consider the period spent on remand a provision which is mandatory, the sentence passed was illegal.
