Question 1 In your own words provide your understanding of the term “previous consistent
statement”. (10)
This refers to a statement made by a witness that is consistent with their current testimony and was
made before a motive to fabricate the statement could have arisen. In legal contexts, such statements
are often used to support the credibility of a witness by showing that their current testimony aligns with
what they have previously stated, and that their consistency predates any potential bias or incentive to
lie. This can be important in court cases to establish the reliability of a witness's testimony.
