POCSO Act | Sole Testimony of Minor Victim Sufficient for Conviction Without Physical Evidence or Corroboration : Gauhati HC
Gauhati High Court rules that a minor victim's credible testimony alone can sustain a conviction under POCSO Act, even in the absence of physical evidence or medical injury. The judgment reinforces that lack of corroboration does not automatically vitiate the victim's account, setting a precedent for child sexual abuse cases where direct evidence is often scarce.
