[2007] EWCA Crim 1700

A conviction was not safe in circumstances where a jury member employed as a civilian police communications officer had known various officers involved in the case against a defendant and where on the evidence a fair-minded and informed observer would have concluded that there was a real possibility of bias against that defendant.
