The Supreme Court of India has upheld the conviction of a man sentenced to life imprisonment for sexually assaulting a four-year-old girl. The court emphasized the importance of child witnesses, stating that their testimonies can hold the same credibility as those of adults if deemed reliable. The ruling highlighted that there is no minimum age limit for witnesses in Indian law, and child testimonies must be evaluated with caution and care. This decision stems from a case involving the testimony of the convicted man's seven-year-old daughter, reinforcing the legal standing of children's accounts in judicial proceedings.
