Defects in particulars of date/time or minor name discrepancies do not invalidate a sexual offence charge under Act 792 where identity and the sexual act are sufficiently established and the accused is not prejudiced; because the victim gave direct, consistent evidence and an eyewitness identified the accused and the recording officer testified, a prima facie case existed and the appeal succeeds to remit the matter for the accused to be called to enter his defence.
