Saidi Rajabu v. R., (PC) Crim. App. 40-D-67; 25/5/67; Hamlyn, J.
Accused was convicted in a Primary Court of stealing and housebreaking. The District Magistrate upheld the conviction, one of his reasons being that the accused “was once convicted with similar offence in October, 1966.”
Held: This remark was “most improper”. The fact of such a conviction should carry no eight in deciding a case on appeal. Conviction set aside.
