The appeal is allowed because the trial judge's manner of questioning the defendant created an appearance of bias and the judge gave an unnecessary and potentially misleading 'shut eyes' direction on inferring knowledge which was not justified by the facts; however the judge did not err in refusing to discharge the jury. The conviction was therefore unsafe and must be quashed.
