Exh.P45 was inadmissible under s.19A(2) because the documents were not certified by a person having custody or control of the originals; absent admissible proof that the vehicles were stolen the conviction could not stand; the cautioned statement was properly admitted as voluntary but did not supply the necessary admissible proof that the goods were stolen; the court quashed the conviction and ordered a retrial on a fresh indictment; it was unnecessary to decide the applicability of s.159G to these facts.
