You can still take legal action in a car accident case even if the person who caused the accident has refused to admit guilt and you have no third-party witness. However, your lawyer needs to gather as much evidence as possible to stand a chance of winning the case. Evidence like what the victim remembers, a police report, videos, and photos with details of the accident (vehicle damages, registration number, the scene, etc).
To demonstrate mens area in robbery and robbery with violence, lets first understand the meaning of the two.Robbery involves threatening or using force before or at the time of theft in order to steal. On the other hand, robbery with violence involves stealing and the same time causing harm or death.Robbery and Robbery with violence have no mens area because the intention here was to use force to steal. Mens area will only be applicable if the jury rules that there was no force used and therefore it is not Robbery but theft.In theft, mens area is applicable if you argue that the person stealing thought he had the right to do so on behalf of himself or for a third person or the person whose property was stolen could not be accessed or reached. In such case, you will have to look at whether the intention was clear or not.Reading notesJudgment on Criminal appeal case number 101 of 2016 in the Court of Appeal, Nairobi: http://kenyalaw.org/caselaw/cases/view/160935Penal Code (Kenya)
