The appellant, Samir Ibrahim, appealed his convictions for uttering a threat to cause bodily harm and breaching a recognizance.
The appeal argued that the trial court erred in finding that the words uttered by the visually-impaired appellant over a cellphone constituted a threat.
The Superior Court of Justice, sitting as a Summary Conviction Appeal Court, dismissed the appeal, upholding the trial judge's findings on the words uttered and their interpretation as a threat in context, as well as the appellant's intent to intimidate.
