Of Section 315 (3) of the Criminal and Other Offences (Procedure) Act, 1960 (Act 30); Review of the Decision Of Augustine Yeboah vrs. Attorney-General, Dictum of Parker Yarney J.
The article reviews Augustine Yeboah v Attorney-General and examines when a prison sentence begins where a convicted person absconds before serving the sentence. It argues that the period spent at large must not count towards the sentence and supports issuing a new warrant of commitment upon the convict’s rearrest. It further analyses the relationship between Act 30, Act 29 and the Courts Act, concluding that the law should not permit an absconding convict to benefit from unlawful conduct.
