The court held that it has jurisdiction to try a Crown servant alleged to have been in control of pecuniary resources disproportionate to official emoluments irrespective of the accused's physical location on the relevant date, and that the evidence then before the court established a prima facie case requiring the accused to answer; further, "disproportionate to" is not to be construed as strictly meaning "in excess of" total official emoluments and the court will not depart from established practice by ruling separately on each particularized item.
