Because the Magistrate accepted the appellant's truthful evidence that she did not know and had no reasonable grounds to believe the monies were proceeds of crime and there was insufficient evidence to justify an irresistible inference of knowledge or that she 'brought suspicion' upon herself, the refusal to award costs was unsupported by the evidence; the appellate court therefore allowed the appeal and ordered costs.
