Given the appellant's possession of keys that opened premises containing substantial quantities of obscene DVDs, his furtive attempt to discard those keys in custody, his nervous conduct, and his election not to give evidence when an explanation was required, the magistrate was entitled to draw the only proper and irresistible inference that the appellant was in possession of the obscene articles for publication; the acquittal on Shop 23 was properly based on evidence of subletting.
