Of Section 315 (3) of the Criminal and Other Offences (Procedure) Act, 1960 (Act 30); Review of the Decision in the Case of Augustine Yeboah vrs. Attorney-General, Dictum of Parker Yarney J.

The Author posits that the reaction of Parker Yarney J supra should be the reaction of anyone on whom the argument that the sentence commences on the date of pronouncement and so an absconding convict will only serve the remaining term after his re-arrest is urged. This makes the absurdity in the application of section 315(3) of Act 30 to absconding convicts more apparent if not legally nauseating.
