[2004] UKPC 5

The defendants appeal against murder would be dismissed as the evidence of the principle witness at trial, to the effect that he had lied at trial, was fanciful and not capable of belief. The Court of Appeal had been correct in deciding whether the evidence was capable of belief from the affidavits.
