PRISONERS RETURN TO N.S.W. MINISTER OF JUSTICE EXPLAINS Press Association WELLINGTON, Wednesday. A Press Association cablegram last week from Sydney stated that in the Legislative Assembly, Mr. T. R. Bavin’s attention had been drawn to a statement that a man convicted in Wellington of a serious offence had had sentence suspended to enable him to go to Sydney.
The Hon. F. J. Rolleston to-day said that Mr. Bavin had sent a cable to him in regard to the matter and as a result of inquiries he had replied setting out the facts. There was no stipulation that the man concerned should go to Sydney. He was born in Sydney, where he had relatives whom he was supporting. These facts had been confirmed by the Sydney police.
