\ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid15015320\charrsid12988201 of thought in the common law world about this topic in the context of trial by jury. One is that jurors should be told that they should disregard }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 
\f0\fs24\insrsid10501468\charrsid12988201 the confession altogether if they are not sure that it was made voluntarily. After all, what weight c
an be placed at all on a confession which may have been made as a result of ill-treatment or oppression, or which may have been induced by a promise of some kind, and which made the suspect confess when he might otherwise not have done so? He may have bee
n
 confessing his guilt, not because he was guilty, but, for example, because he wanted the ill-treatment to stop. The other school of thought takes as its starting point the fact that questions of admissibility of evidence are for the judge to decide, wher
e
as the evaluation of such evidence as has been ruled admissible is for the jurors to make. If the judge is required to direct the juro4rs to disregard the confession if they are not sure that it was made voluntarily, that would be tantamount to the judge 
usurping the jurors\rquote 
 function of evaluating the evidence for themselves. On this school of thought, the appropriate direction is to tell the jurors that the weight which they should give to the confession is for them to decide. That is the school of thought

said that he cooperated with the police. He admitted that no force or threats were made during the arrest or while being brought to the police station. However he said that Sgt Aminiasi threatened him to confess to the allegations. Due to the unfair treat

ent the appellant submitted that he admitted to the crime. On perusal of the record of the High Court (pg.148) it is evident that no questions were asked by the appellant from this witness on this basis. Moreover it appears that the caution interview was 
done by Sergeant Vinendra Deo (pgs. 95 to 98RHC).}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid13560\charrsid12988201    }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid8006488\charrsid12988201

The appellant admitted to the answers given at the caution interview. He also admitted to the caution that was offered by the interviewer. He admitted that the answers given at the interview conne
ct him to the crime. However, he said in evidence that those answers are }{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid12151520\charrsid12988201 n}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \f0\fs24\insrsid4946862\charrsid12988201 
ot true. The appellant strongly submitted that it is for the assessors to believe the truth or the falsity of the caution interview once they determine that it was made voluntarily. 
It is true that it is the trial judge who decides on the admissibility of the confession. Once it is admitted, the same evidence that was led at the voir dire is led before the assessors, for the assessors to determine not only the truth of it, but of the
 voluntariness as well.

I am of the view that the learned judge had explained well how to believe and under what circumstances to reject the confession. In paragraph 21 of the summing up the learned judge gave a synopsis of what the appellant had said
 at the caution interview; how the appellant with others did break into \'93Rups Big Bear\'94
 shop. The two security guards described as to how they were tied up by masked men armed with weapons (pg.157). The appellant gave an account (pg.97) in his caution inte
rview how they tied up the security guards and damaged a light in order to darken the place. This was confirmed by Chand, (pg.158) an employee, in evidence.}{\rtlch\fcs1 \af0\afs24 \ltrch\fcs0 \b\f0\fs24\insrsid12151520\charrsid12988201

The Court of Appeal according to the above passages dealt with the argument regarding the absence of a direction by the trial judge regarding the weight and truth of the confession comprehensively. The Court was of the view that there was sufficien
t evidence at the trial which gave weight to the truth of the confession once the voluntariness was accepted by the Assessors.
