RULING
The accused person is charged with the Offence of Murder Contrary to Section 203as read with Section 204 of the Penal Code.
The prosecution called a total of seventeen (17) witnesses, none of whom witnessed the incident forming the basis of this charge.
The evidence before this Court is purely circumstantial evidence. I am however satisfied that the Prosecution has established a Prima Facie case against the accused person.
