R v Remi Loader & Anor

The evidence, taken as a whole, was sufficient for a properly directed jury to conclude that the applicants were the attackers and had the requisite intent to kill. The disputed evidence was relevant and not unfairly prejudicial, and judicial directions adequately addressed any risk. The convictions are safe and the applications for leave to appeal are refused.
