The accused, C.G., was charged with sexual assault against M.A. and G.M. The charge related to G.M. was dismissed during the trial.
The judge-alone trial proceeded on the charge concerning M.A., which allegedly occurred between 1984 and 1987.
The court found the evidence of the defence witness, D.G. (the accused's daughter and complainant M.A.'s cousin/roommate), to be credible and reliable, particularly her testimony that she did not witness the alleged assaults despite sharing a small room with M.A. during the relevant period.
This created a reasonable doubt, leading to an acquittal for C.G.
