The defendant appealed against his firearms and drugs convictions.
Held: the appeal was allowed, relying on material contained within a confidential annex to the report of the Criminal Cases Review Commission. Matters now known would have cast doubt on the integrity of the police case, and fuller disclosure would have been ordered, and that, the prosecution no douubt being reluctant to reveal its source would have discontinued the prosecution.
