[2012] EWCA Crim 1859

Voice recognition evidence did not render convictions for murder, attempted murder and kidnapping unsafe where the defence team had not challenged its admissibility at trial and the case against the defendant had been incredibly strong. It was not incumbent upon the judge to give a modified Turnbull direction where it was the defence case that the witnesses were fabricating their evidence and it had not been suggested that they were mistaken.
