Man disqualified, jailed for driving
PA Wellington A man, already disqualified from driving until 1986, has been jailed for a year and disqualified from driving for another year. Prince Maihi, aged 22, a disc jockey, had pleaded guilty to two charges of driving while disqualified, one of unlawfully taking a car, of dangerous driving, failing to stop for a constable, and possession of cannabis. Judge Headifen, in the District Court at Wellington, said Maihi had been repeat-
edly charged with disqualified driving since 1980. Maihi was jailed for a year and disqualified from driving for a year on each charge of disqualified driving and for unlawfully taking a car. The disqualification starts in 1986. For dangerous driving he was jailed for the maximum three months and disqualified for a year. The terms are concurrent. On the charges of failing to stop for a constable and possession of cannabis he was convicted and discharged.
