The trial judge's direction deprived the jury of their proper role in deciding whether the owner (TSUI) instigated or consented to the taking; if TSUI had instigated or consented there was no dishonest intention by the applicants and therefore no robbery; the convictions were unsafe and must be quashed, with a retrial ordered on an amended indictment omitting reference to the fokis (CHAN and LAM).
