Given the jury's findings and on the written evidence of two consultant psychiatrists diagnosing advanced progressive dementia and recommending hospital admission, the statutory threshold in section 76(2)(a) was satisfied and the court must order admission to a mental hospital under section 76(2)(a) and Schedule 4 of the Criminal Procedure Ordinance; this was the most suitable dispositional order in all the circumstances.
