1. This appeal arose as a result of the appellant's conviction in connection with an incident that occurred on29th August 1982 at about 1.20 a.m. in the Victoria Park near a toilet. The appellant was with a group of friends; so was the alleged victim. It would serve little purpose for me to describe in detail what was said to have transpired. But the defence was and still is built on the contention that the appellant had an honest claim of right in demanding monetary compensation.
