It is trite law that the prosecution must prove beyond reasonable doubt each and every essential ingredients of the offence charged before a meaningful conviction can be secured (MOMODOU JALLOW v. COMMISSIONER OF POLICE (1960- 1993) GLR 39 and WOOLMINGTON V DPP (1953) A.C. 462). The charge was therefore not proved beyond reasonable doubts. The law is settled that where the prosecution has failed to prove its case beyond reasonable doubts the accused is entitled to an acquittal (WOOLMINGTON v. DPP (SUPRA)). In view of the above, I am compelled at this point to discharge and acquit the accused person. The accused person SANNA KAH is accordingly discharged and acquitted. EMMANUEL A.
