    Court found beyond reasonable doubt that both accused knowingly misrepresented ownership of state land, induced complainant to pay sums in reliance on those representations, and possessed dishonest intent from the outset; defence explanations were implausible and did not raise reasonable doubt, therefore conviction under Section 420 Kanun Keseksaan was warranted.
