The High Court allowed a criminal appeal, quashed a rape conviction and set aside a 30-year sentence after finding a material variance in the date alleged.
The charge was not defective as the relevant section was in force and particulars were clear; failure to recall witnesses after charge substitution was not prejudicial as only the date changed and no injustice occurred; evidence of a witness not affirmed was expunged but did not affect the conviction; the prosecution proved the case beyond reasonable doubt based on credible identification evidence from PW1.
