Morojane v S (A401/19) [2021] ZAGPPHC 795 (18 November 2021)
The court found that the identification of the appellant by Constable Mabunda was reliable, supported by sufficient lighting at the scene and corroborated by other evidence. The trial court correctly applied the cautionary rule to single witness identification and properly assessed the credibility of the witnesses. The appellant's version was found to be improbable and not reasonably possibly true. The appellate court held that there was no basis to interfere with the trial court's findings and that the conviction should stand.
