The court found on the evidence that the accused was in prima facie control of numerous assets and that the statutory presumption under s.10(2) was properly invoked; the accused failed to prove on the balance of probabilities satisfactory explanations for those assets or that they derived from legitimate sources, leaving unexplained wealth grossly disproportionate to official emoluments; conviction under s.10(1)(b) followed and custody was required for deterrence and breach of public trust.
