The appellant was convicted as a party to robbery and aggravated assault, but acquitted of assault with a weapon, after luring two victims to an apartment stairwell where they were attacked and robbed by four armed men.
On appeal, the appellant argued the verdicts were inconsistent.
The Court of Appeal dismissed the appeal, finding it was open to the jury to conclude the appellant knew of the armed robbery and likely injury, but was not satisfied he knew the plan involved the actual or threatened use of weapons.
