The trial judge's acceptance of the complainant's credible, direct evidence supported by the medical report was reasonable and not vitiated; therefore the conviction was properly upheld. However, considering the minor nature of the dispute, the complainant's relatively minor injuries and the appellant's age and antecedents, the appropriate sentence was reduced from 9 months to 7 months' imprisonment.
