R. v. Nicholuis David Makota, Crim. Rev. 146-D-67, 15/11/67, Biron J.
Accused was convicted of transferring a firearm to another person without a permit signed by an authorized officer contrary to sections 15 and 31(1) and (2) of the Arms and Ammunition Ordinance. There was evidence that he had loaned his shotgun to a friend who was going hunting and who accidentally killed a man while attempting to shoot a pig.
Held: A transfer contemplated by the cited section must be ejusdem generic with a sale or purchase as set out in the section, and a temporary loan does not constitute such a transfer. [Citing R. v. Mwalimu s/o Saudi, (1959) E.A. 415.] Conviction quashed.
