The magistrate correctly applied the required caution on identification, refused to rely on fleeting facial identification, and lawfully convicted because the sequential and consistent evidence of PW1 and PW2 established a nexus between the theft and the person apprehended such that identity was proved beyond reasonable doubt; minor discrepancies did not undermine the prosecution case and no misdirection or reversal of burden occurred.
