You represent Georgia, who is on trial in the Crown Court for ABH on a homeless man who was sleeping rough in the town centre. She was identified by Sunitha who witnessed the assault and claims to know Georgia. When Georgia is interviewed under caution she denies knowing Sunitha and asks the police to carry out an identification procedure. In breach of PACE 1984 Code D, the police refuse, on the grounds that it is unnecessary. The Prosecution indicate that, as a result of Sunitha’s evidence, they have a strong case against Georgia. What is the most appropriate way for you to deal with Sunitha’s identification evidence?
