[2009] EWCA Crim 549

Convictions for assault and unlawful wounding were unsafe, as the judge had failed to remind the jury of any of the material contradictions and inconsistencies between the complainants' evidence. As the offender had served a significant part of his sentence, it was not in the interests of justice to order a retrial.
