The magistrate's adverse assessment of the appellant's sworn denial was a factual finding on credibility which legitimately rebuts or upholds the statutory presumption; the magistrate did not treat s.8 as creating an irrebuttable presumption as a matter of law, and on the facts the appellant failed to rebut the presumption, so the conviction was properly supported.
