Facts of the Case
Background
The accused was charged with physical abuse under the Domestic Violence Act for striking the complainant with open hands and a switch. He pleaded guilty and was convicted. The trial court suspended a portion of the sentence on a condition that the Regional Magistrate and the High Court found to be overly wide and vague, as it covered all offences under the Domestic Violence Act rather than just physical abuse.
