"The check came back linking the name to Adrian Grazette [that is this appellant] and the address of 59 Nutfield Road, Thornton Heath, which he gave as his address at the commencement of the trial."
"We ruled that the extract from CRIMINT recorded on the custody record was a business document. We ruled that the objections made under Sections 117(2) (b), 117(5)(b) and 116(2)(d) were not made out. We referred to the tests at (a)-(c) of section 117(7) and took into account that the original source of the information was unknown, and that the evidence was multiple hearsay. We did not find the reliability of the evidence doubtful under that section and therefore did not make a direction."
