[2008] EWCA Crim 1518

Where an accused had been convicted of an offence of complicity to contravene the Customs and Excise Management Act 1979 s.170(2), the jury having found that there had been a genuine plan to import heroin into the United Kingdom, and fresh evidence came to light suggesting there had not been a genuine supply, his conviction was quashed as unsafe.
