SUMMARY
Distinction between statement of an accomplice and a confession of co-accused before police explained; Discrepancies between autopsy and crime reports highlighted in ascertaining whether the occurrence was un-witnessed; PFSA report on CCTV footage without photogrammetry test insufficient to decipher identity of unknown assailant; Trail Court under a bounden duty to assess the admissibility of a video and photographic evidence before allowing it on record. Its failure cannot prejudice the appellant because Actus Curiae Neminem Gravabit.
