Court index description
Conviction can be recorded on the basis of the statement of a single eyewitness provided his credibility is not shaken by any adverse circumstance appearing on the record against him and the court, at the same time, is convinced that he is a truthful witness. Where there are no such exceptional reasons operating it becomes the duty of the court to convict, if it is satisfied that testimony of a single witness is entirely reliable.
