Key legal question
Whether the appellate court's acquittal was based on arbitrary evidence assessment and violated in dubio pro reo.
Extracted holding
The Federal Court found the appellate court's assessment tenable; mere alternative interpretations did not establish arbitrariness, and no objectively substantial doubt requiring intervention was shown.
Extracted reasoning
The lower court identified inconsistencies and uncertainties in the complainant's account; its speculative remarks remained possibilities, not factual findings, and its conclusion was not untenable overall.
