The sources and types of secondary data were obtained from literature studies. Based on the results of the study, the evidentiary power of witness statements in a trial of a criminal act of indecency depends on several factors, including: conformity with other evidence: The witness's statement must be consistent with other valid evidence. Conformity with the statements of other witnesses: The witness's statement must be consistent with the statements of other witnesses. The witness's reasons for giving a statement: The judge considers the witness's reasons for giving a particular statement.
