The admission of evidence and prosecutorial comment implying the applicants had instigated Tony Chan's approaches was inadmissible and highly prejudicial; the trial judge's failure to direct the jury to consider that material only as relevant to the witnesses' motives and not as evidence against the applicants made the convictions unsafe; accordingly the appeals were allowed, convictions quashed and retrials ordered.
