Applications for disclosure made several years after trial and conviction for murder and dismissal of first appeal.
Held: Refused: ‘ the fresh evidence of alibi is completely devoid of credibility. It does not satisfy the criteria in Section 23 of the 1968 Act. With that conclusion the entire edifice of the applicant’s case collapses. His grounds of appeal are unarguable. We refuse his application for leave to appeal against conviction.’
