Number of Witness
Though it provides that no particular number of witnesses is required for proving any fact still then for convicting an accused solely on the basis of the evidence of the police personnels the Judge must ensure that their evidence is unimpeachable and un- shakeable in character and the public wit- nesses attending the search and seizure are unworthy of credit-Evidence Act, 1872, S. 134

Solitary witness in a murder case
Conviction on the evidence of a solitary witness in a case involving death sentence is unsafe. In such a case the evidence of a solitary witness requires corroboration. The State Vs. Manjur, 15BLD(HCD) 193
Number of witness
It provides that no particular number of witnesses is necessary to prove any fact. Conviction can be based on the evidence of a solitary witness if it is free from all taints and it does not suffer from any infirmity.
In the instant case, the evidence of the only witness seeing the infliction of the fatal blow on the neck of the victim suffers from infirmities and persons present in the vicinity do not support him in so far as it relates to the infliction of the fatal injury, it is highly unsafe to base conviction on his evidence. Discrepancy in the medical evidence makes the prosecution case all the more doubtful-Evidence Act, 1872; S. 134
The State Vs. Munshi Miah, 15BLD (HCD) 139
Ref: 29 (AD) 21 1-Cited
There is no hard and fast rule to examine innumerable number of witnesses to prove a charge. The prosecution examines those witnesses whose deposition is relevant to prove a charge.
The Appellate Division has thoroughly assessed the evidence of the witnesses both oral and documentary and found the petitioner guilty of the charge by majority. As regards non-examination of documents, those were not at all relevant for resolving the point in controversy. Other points raised by the learned counsel have already been answered in the appeal, and therefore, there is no scope for reconsideration of those facts. Allama Delwar Hossain Sayedee Vs. The Chief Prosecution (ICT) (Criminal) 16 ALR (AD) 206-208
