Conviction for assault on a child quashed due to inadequate corroboration and insufficient medical and testimonial evidence.
  • Criminal law
    • — Evidence of children — Corroboration required where child gives sworn evidence for prosecution — Juveniles Amendment Act No. 3 of 2011 — Bernard Chisha v The People remains applicable
    • — Medical evidence — Expert report must be detailed to link injuries to specific instrument; absence of such detail weakens causal inference
  • Criminal procedure — Prosecution duty to call key witnesses — Failure to call spouse who intervened may attract rebuttable presumption in favour of accused
