Court of Appeal dismisses appeals and upholds convictions for murder, and associated charges. The appellants challenged the admissibility of evidence, the lawfulness of their arrests, and the trial court's reliance on the testimony of an accomplice, among other issues. The Court found no error in the trial court's rulings, including the handling of forensic evidence, the arrest procedures, and the treatment of witness testimony. The court determined that the trial was conducted fairly and in accordance with the law, and that the convictions were supported by ample evidence.
