[2005] EWCA Crim 2009

In light of a failure by the trial judge to supply the jury with the correct test in relation to the conduct of an interview of a minor, and the failure to give guidance on the relevant guidelines, it would be wrong for the court to assess the evidence for itself and uphold the conviction for indecent assault in any event.
