Lord Wilberforce:
said at the hearing: "Their Lordships will ... report to His Majesty the Yang di- Pertuan Agong that the time for appeal should be extended; the convictions and sentence of the appellant should be set aside and the case remitted to the Federal Court for further consideration as to whether or not to order a new trial.
Order accordingly.
