Hamisi s/o Shaha @ Hamisi s/o Issa v. R., Crim. App. 487-D-67; 31/7/67; Hamlyn, J.
Accused was convicted under section 310 of the Criminal Procedure Code of two counts of failing to comply with section 309, which prescribes certain requirements for those subject to a police supervision order. Each count charged a separate violation of section 309.
Held: It is a single offence under section 310 to refuse to comply with one or several of the requirements of section 309. A conviction in separate counts of violating separate requirements of section 309 is improper and may even contravene section 21 of the Penal Code. The conviction on the second count was set aside.
