The High Court convicted the Appellant on two counts of murder upon the confession of the Appellant. During the trial, counsel for the Appellant successfully applied for a court order to commit the Appellant for medical examination. The consultant psychiatrist concluded that the Appellant was sane at the material time when he committed the alleged offence. The Appellant stood the trial. In this appeal, the Appellant faulted the learned trial judge for failing to comply with the provisions of section 291(3) of the Criminal Procedure Act [Cap 20 R.E. 2002], which omission, counsel for the Appellant contended, occasioned a failure of justice to the Appellant.
