[2008] UKPC 27

The admission of a dock identification had contained within it the possibility that the identification could tend to reinforce the jury's acceptance of the truth of a statement made by the defendant admitting to offences of robbery and kidnapping, but the judge had sufficiently brought to the jury's attention the weakness of dock identifications and the trial had been fair.
