On review of the whole record the Court found no misdirection by the trial judge: credible direct evidence (SP3, SP8, SP9) corroborated by documentary receipt and the totality of circumstantial evidence proved beyond reasonable doubt that the appellant forged part of P2 (the title) with intent to use it to deceive; statutory scheme under MACC Act validly supported prosecution and there was no procedural prejudice; therefore conviction and the three-year custodial sentence plus RM50,000 fine (or 15 months default) were correctly imposed and are upheld.
