No test identification parade had taken place and yet, the child witness was accepted by the Sessions Court and also conviction confirmed by the High Court. The said finding of proof of the identification by the child witness in the Court, in the absence of test identification parade, after six years, was held believable by the Supreme Court. In the said judgment, the Hon'ble Supreme Court held that the test identification parade should be held at the earliest so that the memory of the witness should not fade in the meanwhile.
