The appeal was allowed because material inconsistencies existed between PW2's court evidence and his prior statement and PW1's positive identification excluded the appellant as the male who had been annoying her; there was no cogent evidence establishing when or how the appellant acquired the phone or that he dishonestly appropriated it, and the learned Magistrate's misapprehension of PW3's evidence undermined confidence in the conviction.
