'Innocent until proven guilty' only from legal perspective. Not everything must be decided based innocent or guilty. innocent can be high risk. Not every innocent ppl that apply for airline license must get it.
[41] Dalam kes State and Raymond Titus (High Court Ref No: 13858), Mahkamah Tinggi Afrika Selatan membincangkan mengenai pendekatan yang perlu diambil dalam menilai keterangan saksi polis seperti berikut:
[11] As noted earlier, the fact that Horn was a policeman did not per se entitle his evidence to greater weight than that of the accused nor constitute a basis for laying caution to rest. It is true that the accused in the present case, if he was guilty, had a motive to testify dishonestly, i.e. to avoid conviction and punishment; but this is true in virtually every criminal case. Furthermore, and while one naturally does not expect a policeman to lie and falsely implicate an accused person, it is unfortunately not possible to say that this never happens. Police officials may have a desire to obtain convictions, particularly where a suspect is known to them as a person who has had previous brushes with the law or is one whom they suspect for other reasons (not founded in the evidence before the court) of having engaged in criminal activity. I do not for a moment suggest that the majority of policeman would behave in this way but, where an accused protests his innocence, one cannot dismiss it out of hand as being by its very nature a far-fetched possibility.
[42] Kami bersetuju dengan pendekatan yang diambil oleh kes di atas dan berpendapat ia merupakan pendekatan yang betul dalam mempertimbangkan keterangan yang diberikan oleh saksi-saksi agensi-agensi penguatkuasa, termasuklah saksi polis.
That why world 3 with people like you and 9m2w to judge without credentials or at least with some evidence. If just based on hearsay, pig also can fly.
