Application to adjourn was refused and the trial was to proceed; the court confirmed the governing test for no case to answer in circumstantial cases — the prosecution must adduce evidence which, if accepted and when drawing all inferences reasonably open in their favour, is capable in law of supporting a conviction because it could lead a reasonable mind to exclude hypotheses consistent with innocence — and applied the tests in Galbraith, Lee Fook Shiu Ronald and Varlack to the facts of this case.
