Addressing the defendant, Judge Andrew Stubbs KC said: “You look shocked at the thought you could be going to prison. I wouldn’t be shocked at all for this kind of offence and you shouldn’t be surprised if that’s what happens.”
The case was adjourned until November 28 and Mbassi was granted bail, with the condition that he is prohibited from entering the shopping centre.
