The convictions were quashed because the trial judge analysed the evidence in a direction departing from the prosecution's pleaded case, rendering the convictions unsafe; on balance, given the seriousness of the offence, the relative simplicity of the evidence, limited prejudice from delay and that appellants had not yet served sentences, the interests of justice required remittal for retrial before a different magistrate.
