He held that the video of the press conference showing Senator Abbo apologising was not tantamount to an admission of guilt as it wasn’t a confessional statement. Ilelah said the testimony of the victim was “weak because the allegation has not been substantiated in any material particular".

He said the court would rely on the law and not logic or media reports because he who alleges must prove.
