JavaScript : Incorrect usage of block finally

Overview

JavaScript suspends the control flow statements of try and catch blocks until the execution of finally block finishes. So, when return, throw, break, continue is used in finally, control flow statements inside try and catch are overwritten, which is considered as unexpected behavior.
