[2006] EWCA Crim 3122

A conviction for laundering the proceeds of a smuggling operation was not rendered unsafe by the subsequent acquittal of the man accused of running the smuggling operation. If that man's evidence given at his own trial would have been favourable to the appellant, the appellant should have applied to submit it as fresh evidence to the Court of Appeal, which he had not done.
