Flynote

Appeal – criminal case – grounds – need to state grounds clearly and specifically – generalisations not enough – notice not complying with such requirement may be a nullity

Estoppel – criminal proceedings – application to – limited application of concept in criminal proceedings – need to show previous determination on same issue – concessions made by State in bail application – State not estopped from supporting conviction on appeal

Evidence – sexual case – corroboration – not essential – corroboration – what evidence may be taken as corroborative – not necessary that corroborating evidence itself must point towards accused's guilt
