Appeal dismissed because the High Court held the trial judge correctly exercised his fact‑finding function: defence evidence and omissions in investigation (failure to take SD2/Aimi statements and to seize the mobile phone) created reasonable doubt and the complainant's evidence was not sufficiently 'unusually convincing' to dispense with corroboration; therefore acquittal at the end of defence was properly maintained.
