SENTENCE ON MAORI
Robbery With Violence "You have pleaded guilty to a serious crime—robbery with violence —and though only 25 you have a considerable criminal record already.” said Mr. Justice Ostler in the Supreme Court, Wellington, yesterday, to a Maori, Waari Kingi. “I think the only thing to do with you is to put you in a position where you can earn some remission of your sentence by your good conduct. Yon will be s-ent.euce<l to reformative detention not exceeding three years.”
