The convictions were quashed because the indictment and the judge's agreed written directions treated particulars (a)–(e) as alternative dishonest means forming part of the conspiratorial agreement, creating a latent duplicity that could have resulted in conviction on different conspiracies or inconsistent combinations of conspirators without jury unanimity; retrial ordered.
