NOT READY FOR SENTENCING

The deputy public prosecutor (DPP) objected to the application for adjournment.
The sentencing hearing on July 28 was initially fixed on May 30, when Dee Kosh pleaded guilty in court.
A judge had earlier ordered that Dee Kosh undergo a psychiatric assessment at the Institute of Mental Health (IMH) to assess whether he has a paedophilic disorder.
The IMH report was received and uploaded on Jul. 18.
The prosecution later uploaded their sentencing submissions on Jul. 25.
ONE WEEK EXTENSION
The defence took issue with some of the contents in the prosecution’s sentencing submissions and asked for some of them to be removed. The defence said they only had a limited amount of time to respond to the submissions.

The allegations against Dee was first surfaced by an Instagram user in August 2020. The user came forward and alleged that Dee Kosh had asked him for nudes and sexual favours, under the guise of recruiting him as a YouTube talent.
