The Court allowed the appeal, holding that discovery of identical 25‑character passages in cautioned statements from another case materially undermined the credibility of the police officer (D.P.C. 22705) and therefore the cautioned statements admitted at trial could not be relied upon; the conviction was unsafe and was quashed and the detention order set aside.
