The Court refused leave to appeal: the jury, having seen and heard the complainant and been properly directed on inconsistencies, could reasonably accept her evidence in the main essentials; the appellate court had no substantial remaining doubt under Cooper to justify quashing; the prosecutor's brief reference to absence of evidence from some defendants did not amount to a prejudicial comment under s.54(1) because it was immediately superseded by the judge's direction and would not have influenced the jury.
