Regina v Sinha: CACD 13 Jul 1994

The course of justice may be perverted at large by the act of a defendant even though there was no particular case before the courts yet involved. Here a doctor had, through his negligence, contributed to the death of a patient. He altered computer based records in order to protect himself against being found out. At the time of the alteration, it was inevitable that a Coroner’s Inquest at least would be held.
