In opening the defence Mr. Alabaster said that the prosecu- tion had to satisfy his Worship with three things before they could consider the position of the de- fendant at all in the case. Firstly his Worship had to be satisfied that the defendant had $10,000 with him on that date. Secondly that at least three people in the Bank paid the sum of $10,000 against that particular cheque without knowing that the amount of the cheque was different from the amount, paid out. Thirdly, three people did not know that the they had to prove that all them- cheque and money differed in the foki was not evidence which could The evidence of the dismissed amount, but the defendant did add any weight to that of the That at the time he received it he Bank's servants: He admitted know that the cheque and money that the defendant constantly bor- differed and the three of the Bank rowed money from his cousin's |
