The Court held that the admission of the applicant's prior conviction was within the trial judge's discretion because it was relevant to credibility where the defendant attacked police witnesses; although the trial judge's direction was unduly favourable to the accused (a misdirection), the overall trial was not irregular such that the conviction should be overturned; the application is dismissed.
