Appeal dismissed; appellate court declined to disturb Magistrate's acquittal because the trial Magistrate, who saw and heard witnesses, permissibly found defence expert SD4's evidence raised reasonable doubt on critical psychological and credibility issues, there was no safe corroboration of the child's evidence and no proof of criminal force causing injury/fear, and despite the Magistrate's judgment being terse the record supported the acquittal.
