Accused sent a letter to complainant threatening to kill him. He was convicted in district court of doing an act likely to cause a breach of the peace. [P.C. s. 89(2)(b)].
Held: (1) These facts constitute a specific offence, that of threatening in writing to kill another. (P.C. s. 214). (2) Since homicide offences, including a violation of section 214, are triable only by the High Court, the proceedings below were declared a nullity.
