In Fiji, although the judge will obviously want to take into account the \hich\af0\dbch\af37\loch\f0 
considered view of the assessors, it is the judge who ultimately decides whether the defendant is guilty or not.  By then, of course, the judge will have ruled the confession to have been admissible.  He will therefore have already found beyond reasonable
