The convictions were unsafe and could not stand because the prosecution improperly examined its own witnesses and treated a witness as hostile to deploy prior statements without proper procedure, the examination was unduly aggressive (amounting to bullying), and the judge's summing-up contained misdirection on a material issue (alleged complaint to the complainant's brother), together rendering the jury's verdict unsafe.
