 unlawful assembly which could lead a reasonable tribunal to convict. Although the particulars of the charge as to common purpose was different from the case as put, the appellate Court found that the trial magistrate could have amended the charge, but fa

(1) The magistrate erred in finding that the prosecution failed to link stealing of food to the Respondents, or to prove that the Respondent
s intended to resist the appointment of an interim government, and failed to offer any specific unlawful conduct that caused the neighbourhood to fear they would cause a breach of the peace. An unlawful assembly becomes unlawful (even if the purpose of th
e
 assembly was originally lawful) when the persons assembled (not necessarily the accused persons as long as they were part of the assembly) for a common purpose conduct themselves in a manner that people in the neighbourhood will reasonably anticipate a b
reach of the peace. It matters not that the Respondents themselves did not steal fish or groceries or shoot anyone with the submachine gun.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \fs24\lang2057\langfe1033\langnp2057\insrsid2824889  }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24
