Outcome
In the circumstances, we remain with no option other than agreeing with Ms. Makala that, having discarded the evidence of PW1, the remaining evidence on record is insufficient to sustain the appellant's conviction, it follows therefore that, the case against the appellant was not proved beyond reasonable doubt. Consequently, allow the appeal, quash conviction and set aside the appellant's sentence, order immediate release of the appellant from prison unless held therein for a lawful cause.
