The Court held the summing-up, taken as a whole, was adequate: the confessions, though not express 'full confessions', when combined with the undercover officer's evidence and exhibits justified conviction; the lies direction, while unnecessary in isolation, did not mislead the jury; the acquittal of the third accused did not make the 2nd applicant's conviction inconsistent; and the 1st applicant's sentence was not manifestly excessive — accordingly the appeals were dismissed and sentence upheld.
