The appeal was dismissed because the magistrate was entitled to draw the irresistible inference of joint theft from the totality of circumstantial evidence — the appellants' observed behaviour, possession of the phones shortly after their loss, cooperation in attempting to sell them and absence of money passing — and discrepancies in witness evidence were immaterial to that core finding.
