Evidence of accomplice and agent provocateur
26. (1) Notwithstanding any rule of law or any other written law
to the contrary, in any proceedings against any person for a security
offence—
(a)
no witness shall be regarded as an accomplice by reason
only of such witness having been in any manner
concerned in the commission of the security offence or
having knowledge of the commission of the offence;
and
(b)
no agent provocateur shall be presumed to be unworthy
of credit by reason only of his having attempted to abet
or abetted the commission of a security offence by any
person if the attempt to abet or abetment was for the sole
purpose of securing evidence against such person.
(2) Notwithstanding any rule of law or any other written law to
the contrary, and that the agent provocateur is a police officer
whatever his rank, any statement, whether oral or in writing made to
an agent provocateur by any person who is subsequently charged
with a security offence shall be admissible as evidence at his trial.
