The certified translation of the appellant's police statement was available but not produced; the appellant was misled into proceeding without it and thus could not present his defence or have it properly evaluated by the learned magistrate; in a one‑against‑one credibility dispute that procedural irregularity made the conviction unsafe, so the appeal is allowed, conviction quashed and sentence set aside.
