The Appellants together with others were charged with armed robbery. The District Court acquitted six accused persons but convicted the Appellants, who decided to appeal to the High Court. Perturbed by the suggestion that sons committed robbery on their parents, the High Court, instead of citing the law, resorted to the Biblical Ten Commandments and dismissed the appeal without analysing evidence. The Appellants then appealed to the Court of Appeal. They cited weak identification evidence, contradictory prosecution evidence, and the trial court’s failure to consider their defence, as their grounds of appeal.
