Court relied on the testimony of a single witness, the victim as there was sufficient light and the victim took considerable time in the company of the accused persons. The accused persons also agreed to having been together at the time of the offence.
On the issue of recent possession, court held that both the accused failed to account for the property found in their possession. That in the premise, the accused persons were either robbers or guilty receivers knowing that the property in their possession was stolen.
On the issue of the extra judicial statements, the defence did not retract their confessions during the trial. That there is no better witness than an accused person who voluntarily narrates the truth of the wrong he had done.
