[2008] UKPC 11

A judge did not discharge his duty to give proper directions on the special dangers of dock identification without an identification parade by giving appropriate directions on the approach to be adopted to eyewitness identification evidence in general. Though related, the issues were different and where they both arose, the judge had to address both of them.
