Solitary Eye Witness

Ramswaroop And Anr. vs State Of M.P. on 3 August, 2005

 There is no bar that the conviction cannot be recorded on the evidence of solitary eye-witness. It is true that in such circumstances the evidence of solitary eye-witness should be scrutinised carefully and that should be not only corroborated, but must be cogent, reliable and should inspire confidence



Virender Kumar @ Gara vs State (Nct Of Delhi) on 18 December, 2000

The testimony of a solitary eye witness, particularly when his testimony is found to be reliable and trust worthy, the accused can be convicted. It is only when the testimony of solitary eye witness is partly reliable that it requires corroboration
