Summary

Islam Sirazul was convicted of attempted robbery of a mobile telephone from a cleaner at a playground and resisting a police officer, receiving 42 months and 3 weeks' imprisonment. He applied for leave to appeal against conviction and sentence, arguing the judge erred in assessing identification evidence and witness credibility. Leave was refused as the applications lacked merit.
