The search at the appellants' home was illegal as it was conducted without written authority, not by an officer in charge, during prohibited hours, and not as an emergency; evidence obtained from the illegal search was inadmissible as the requirements of section 169 of the CPA were not met; with the exclusion of this evidence, the prosecution's case could not be sustained.
