21–22 of 22 cases
  1. Supreme Court of India (2017) 2 SCC 51

    State of Himachal Pradesh v. Sanjay Kumar alias Sunny

    Ratio

    The testimony of a survivor in sexual offences cases is vital unless compelling reasons necessitate corroboration. Courts should find no difficulty to convict on the testimony of the survivor of a sexual assault alone if the testimony inspires confidence.

  2. Supreme Court of India (2010) 8 SCC 191

    Vijay alias Chinee v. State of Madhya Pradesh

    Ratio

    Conviction can be based solely on the testimony of the child survivor if it is trustworthy and reliable, even in the absence of corroborating evidence or injuries. Minor discrepancies in her does not make it unreliable.
