    Solution

    “Alibi” is the Latin word, which means that “elsewhere” and it is used to convey to the court that when an accused takes the option to a defence that he was so far away from the place of offence and it is clearly stated that its uncertain that accused have involved in the crime”. It is only a rule of evidence recognised in Section 11 of the Evidence Act that facts which are inconsistent with the fact in issue are relevant."
