ABSCONDED FROM BAIL

According to the Chief Police Prosecutor (Sergeant Napper)

at the Central Police Court today, William McCleod or

Roach, who had appealed against a sentence of six months gaol, 

failed to attend the Appeal Court when his case was called.

The appeal was dismissed.

McLeod was charged with having absconded from his bail.

"I was unable to appear, because I was arrested in Victoria", 

explained McLeod.

"And he was convicted there" cut in Sergeant Napper.

McLeod was remanded until May 17, and the sergeant announced 

that when the warrant was returned from Melbourne McLeod would automatically return to custody.
