[2013] UKPC 26

The Appeal Division of the Isle of Man had been entitled to conclude that an autistic man's conviction for sexual assault was safe. The expert evidence adduced by the offender about his condition did not lead to a different conclusion because the evidence, as a whole, supported conviction.
