incident and to whom the entire incident was disclosed by the prosecutrix, have duly supported the version of the prosecutrix. This immediate communication by the prosecutrix to these witnesses has relevance. Although the medical evidence is not clear about the commission of forcible sexual intercourse but only for this reason the entire evidence of the prosecutrix cannot be discarded. It is well settled that the evidence of the prosecutrix alone is sufficient for the purpose of conviction provided if it is found to be reliable, cogent, credible and more importantly, if it inspires confidence in the mind of the Court. In the case in hand, the prosecutrix, an old lady aged about 65 years, has given a clear description of the entire incident. There is no material on record to suggest false implication of the appellant in the present case. Hence, I am of this opinion that the prosecution has proved its case beyond reasonable doubt that it was appellant, who not only committed rape with the prosecutrix but also caused simple injuries to her.
