REVIEW JUDGMENT




MANYARARA, AJ: [1] The accused was convicted of driving a motor vehicle on a public road while the concentration of alcohol in his breath exceeded 0.38 grams per 1000 milliliters, to wit 0.57 milliliters. He was sentenced to pay a fine of two thousand Namibian dollars (N$2 000.00) or in default to serve twelve (12) months imprisonment. However, the court omitted to suspend the accused’s licence as required by Act 22 of 1999 (the Act).

[2] The reviewing Judge returned the case record to the trial court and requested that the omission be rectified. The magistrate has conceded his mistake.


[3] Accordingly, the conviction and sentence are confirmed and the case record is herewith returned to the magistrate to comply with the Act and re-submit the record on review.
