In this case, the Privy Council was of the opinion that alibi evidence being proved through disinterested and impartial witnesses, no doubt will have a greater evidentiary value, but very often a witness may not be in a position to offer such cogent alibi evidence. For example, where a person who is accused of committing a crime but in act he was sleeping in his house at that time can give alibi evidence only through his family members. In such cases it is not possible for him to prove the alibi through disinterested and impartial witnesses.
