The DPP appealed by case stated against rejection of a complaint that the defendant had damaged the car tyres of a neighbour. They had done so on the basis that the CCTV footage submitted in evidence was of such poor quality as not to afford a clear identification of the defendant. They had rejected the compkaint as forming no case to answer.
Held: The only tenable conclusion was that there was sufficient evidence so that a bench properly directed could on one view of the evidence safely convict.
