Convictions were upheld because the victim gave credible, positive identification sustained by a 20-minute encounter without face coverings, fingerprint matching of appellant 1 on the victim's car, recovery of the knife and clothing, and the appellants' defences were inconsistent and failed procedural alibi requirements; sentencing was appropriate given the use of a weapon, seriousness of offence, and relevant precedents, therefore appeals against conviction and sentence are dismissed.
