Section 67C:

67C. Supreme Court may vary sentence on certiorari (1) Where the Intermediate Court or a District Court has convicted and sentenced a person for an offence and the Supreme Court on certiorari determines that the Court had no power to pass the sentence, the Supreme Court may, instead of quashing the conviction, amend it by substituting for the sentence imposed any sentence which the Court had power to impose. (2) Any sentence imposed by the Supreme Court under subsection (1) shall, unless the Supreme Court otherwise directs, begin to run from the time when it would have begun to run if it had been imposed by the Intermediate Court or the District Court, as the case may be, and in computing the term of the sentence any time during which an offender is at large on bail under section 67B shall be disregarded. [Issue 4] D13 – 18 Revised Laws of Mauritius (3) Subsections (1) and (2) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, in relation to any order of a Court which is made on, but does not form part of, the conviction of an offender as they apply in relation to a conviction and sentence.
