- HCMA165/1991
The appeal was allowed and the conviction quashed because the magistrate failed to make the necessary finding on whether the appellant was taken to a toilet (and thereby potentially subjected to threats, assault or inducements) before the cautioned statement was taken, leaving the voluntariness of the statement unresolved and the conviction unsafe.
