Panchhi & Ors Vs State of UP AIR 1998 SC 2726

Hon’ble Supreme Court of India observed as under
" It is not the law that if a witness is a child, his evidence shall be rejected, even if it is found reliable. The law is that evidence of a child witness must be evaluated more carefully and with greater circumspection because a child is susceptible to be swayed by what others tell him and thus a child witness is an easy prey to tutoring."
