Shabani s/o Mvutakamba v. R. Crim. App. 57-M-67; 16/3/67; Platt, J.
Complainant alleged that accused had attacked and beaten him. Accused categorically denied this. There was not independent corroborative evidence for either side. Because the evidence was unclear the trial court conviction was quashed.
The High Court stated, obiter: “The evidence of a single witness for the prosecution can be relied upon to base a conviction, but of course the evidence of single witness can only be accepted with care.”
