The judge properly directed the jury that murder required intention to kill or cause really serious injury, that such intention could only be inferred if death or serious injury was a virtual certainty and appreciated by the accused, and the judge's summing up and clarification in response to the jury's question made this clear; there was no misdirection or unfairness and the application to appeal was dismissed.
