This was a third appeal arising from the
decision of the Court Martial Appeal where the
accused was indicted and convicted on robbery
and murder. The appellant was charged for the
murder of the Police officer and sentenced to
death and appealed to the General Court
Martial where the appeal was allowed only
where the death was reduced to life
imprisonment. He further appealed with the
grounds that there was improper evaluation of
evidence, that the charge and caution statement
was illegal and that there were discrepancies in
the prosecution case leading to a miscarriage of
justice and that the sentence of life
imprisonment was unconstitutional.
