Appellants are entitled to taxed costs of the original trial in the Court of First Instance and of the various appeal-related applications and appeals (including leave applications and bail/certification applications) together with a certificate for three counsel because the successful ground (latent duplicity) was substantive, there are insufficient positive reasons to deprive costs despite other rejected grounds at the Court of Appeal, and the Magistrates' Court costs shall form part of the retrial costs and be dealt with accordingly.
