    The appellate court upheld the convictions and sentences because a prior High Court judge had already found a prima facie case; the appellants' defence evidence failed to raise reasonable doubt on those findings, the trial judge's credibility assessments were entitled to deference, no misdirection was shown, and the sentences were not manifestly excessive given the seriousness and breach of public trust by police officers.
