The material and irreconcilable discrepancy between the complainant (SP1) and the proximate eyewitness (SP2) went to the root of the charge and created reasonable doubt as to whether the accused inflicted the alleged punches; consequently the prosecution failed to prove a prima facie case under s.323 Penal Code and the accused must be acquitted.
