In the present case, the perpetration of criminal acts being directly in issue, the plaintiff/respondent, to succeed, must establish its case beyond all reasonable doubt. See Okuarume v. Obabokor (1966) NMLR 47, Benson Ikoku v. Enoch Oli (1962) All NLR 194, Nwobodo v. Onoh (1984) 1 S.C.N. LR. 1 and Anyah v. A.N.N. Ltd. (1992) 6 NWLR (Pt. 247) 319 at page 333. Both the trial court and the court below were satisfied that plaintiff/respondent’s case against the appellants was proved beyond all reasonable doubt.
