The defendant appealed his conviction for inciting the distribution or showing of indecent images of children contrary to common law. He said that the offence had taken place abroad.
Held: The appeal failed. Provided that at least part of the act (the process of displaying the images) occurred within the jurisdiction, the crown court could hear the action.
