- HCMA207/2024
Trial evidence including CCTV and admissions established beyond reasonable doubt that the appellant removed the speed hump and cut the ropes; those items belonged to the estate/management or were under their control; removal deprived the speed hump and ropes of their function and therefore constituted criminal damage; the appellant did not have a lawful excuse under s64 because there was no immediate necessity and reasonable alternatives or civil remedies existed; fresh evidence was not admitted and credibility findings were properly open to the trial judge, therefore convictions are upheld.
