    Could you explain, what is meant by ‘beyond reasonable doubt’ ?

    Thanks.

    “Beyond reasonable doubt” means that the weight of evidence against the offender far outweighs any defences / alibis that the accused can create

    So great and so compelling is the evidence that the accused’s actions cannot be explained away by mere coincidence

    OK?
