    CACC362/2017

    The presence of the applicant's two right palm prints on the stolen cashbox, combined with the undisputed facts about where the cashbox was found and the applicant's failure to give evidence to explain the prints, permitted the sole irresistible inference that he participated in the burglary and stole the money; consequently the trial judge's guilty inference was correct and leave to appeal against conviction was refused.
