The Court held the appellant's oral admission to hotel staff was a voluntary confession admissible under s.17 Evidence Act; forensic pathology established death by manual strangulation and supported the inference that the appellant intentionally inflicted injury sufficient in the ordinary course of nature to cause death under s.300(c); lack of observable injuries on appellant and circumstantial evidence rebut his private defence claim; accordingly the conviction and death sentence were affirmed.
