Given the evidence that the appellant participated in a planned, revenge triad attack, that he admitted searching for the rival party 'to beat them up' and given the context from which the jury could infer foresight of grievous bodily harm, no reasonable possibility existed that he did not contemplate the risk; the trial judge's directions were adequate and the failure to direct on manslaughter did not produce a miscarriage of justice, therefore leave to appeal and the convictions were refused and upheld.
