The accused had been taken to hospital where it was discovered that he was not ill, merely drunk. He was therefore requested to leave the premises. He failed to comply with this order and was later found in the corridor wandering around, causing a nuisance.
The police were called and he was removed from the premises against his will and taken outside onto the public highway. Once there he was charged with being found drunk in the highway.
As the statute said only “being found drunk”, he was convicted.
Cheers!
