The appeal was allowed because the appeal judge relied on an unpleaded hypothesis of transfer of banknotes between the appellant and his colleague that had not been put to that colleague and thereby treated the discrepancy in recovered notes in a manner that effectively reversed the burden of proof; the prosecution conceded the errors and the conviction was unsafe and quashed.
