The court refused to certify the proposed question because the law is already settled by Lee Fuk Hing: adverse comment is permissible where an accused's police statements are inconsistent with the defence, and whether an omission constitutes such an inconsistency is a question of fact which does not arise on these facts; the learned trial judge did not rely on the applicant's failure to mention Exhibit D1 in interviews as a basis for rejecting the defence.
