Criminal Review

      CHATUKUTA J: The above records of proceedings were placed before me on automatic review. I caused the trial magistrate to have the records in the first five matters transcribed because the magistrate’s handwriting is illegible. The records have been typed. Subsequent records under consideration were sent on review and this time with the proceedings having been typed. I have dealt with all these matters under one judgment as they were dealt with by the same trial magistrate and raise similar fundamental issues.
