\par 
\par A plea of guilty was ente
red. The explanation about the ingot was the basis for the mitigation. It was contended that the Magistrate did accept the explanation above. The claim of bringing in the money was accepted, but not that he was unaware of the need to obtain export permiss
ion. The Magistrate said there had been a failure to declare to Customs when he arrived that he had the money. Counsel for the respondent conceded there was no legal requirement to declare it.
\par 
\par On appeal the learned judge wrongly assumed there was no obliga
tion to declare currency on arrival. Both the Magistrate and the Judge believed the appellant had been in breach of s.23(1) of the Exchange Control Act although not so charged. Counsel on appeal did not correct the Magistrate\rquote 
s erroneous belief though. He should have been aware of it. Counsel for both parties should have drawn the attention of the learned trial judge to this matter. Appellant\rquote

\par 
\par It is clear that the learned Magistrate, in referring to the defendant\rquote s claim that he had brought the money in, commented that he }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid12192609\charrsid8132968 "}{
