Trial judge, having personally observed the victim's court demonstration using the actual van and relying on the respondent's contemporaneous statement, found the conduct was a brief tap over clothing and not a rub or grope; that finding meant sexual purpose under section 14(a) was not established beyond reasonable doubt, so the defence raised a reasonable doubt and the acquittal was upheld.
