ABSTRACT
Similarly, statements rebutting a suggestion that a witness’ oral evidence has been fabricated may be admitted.
Multiple hearsay
Section 121 provides that a hearsay statement is not admissible to prove the fact that an earlier hearsay statement has been made, that is, unless either of the statements is admissible under s 117 (business documents), s 119 (inconsistent statements) or s 120 (other previous statements), all the parties to the proceedings agree, or the court finds that it is in the interests of justice to admit the later statement.
