The Court affirmed the trial judge's evaluation that the son's identification of the applicant was reliable under the Turnbull guidelines and that the father's failure to identify did not render the convictions unsafe; the judge's isolated misstatement did not undermine the soundness of his overall reasoning, so the convictions and sentence were upheld.

The Court held there was no substance to the complaint under Article 10 because the two groups of offences lacked a common factual origin and were of different nature and times, so no oppression or prima facie prejudice was shown; the identity of investigators did not by itself render the appellant's cautioned statement inadmissible; the trial judge's reliance on the statement was not inconsistent with finding the appellant an untruthful witness; identification evidence was properly dealt with under Turnbull — therefore the appeal is dismissed.
