Leave to appeal was dismissed because the summing-up, read as a whole, adequately presented the applicant's oral testimony as the defence case and the record of interview and passport evidence were properly admissible and legitimately used to test credibility; any omissions were not irregular or prejudicial given that passport evidence was put before the jury at defence initiative and prosecution did not allege prior trafficking on earlier trips.
