Prosecution failed to demonstrate reasonable grounds or any timeframe to justify a DNAA; the complainant's withdrawal does not determine prosecution outcome; exercising the court's discretion under s.254(3) CPC, the proper order is discharge amounting to an acquittal (DAA) on all charges to avoid leaving the accused with an indefinite threat of prosecution.
