SECTION 20 GBH WITHOUT INTENT?
Hi guys,
Someone I know has been charged with section 20 GBH without intent. Apparently the person I know has punched someone in the eye which is not true.
Moreover, the person has a good and exceptionally clean record in the past 45 years of their life. In regards to this incident, there is no proof/evidence meaning there are no independent witnesses, no fingerprints or cctv camera footage. This incident has caused an extreme amount of stress in everyone's lives especially mine as the member is my relative and we are all really worried for the person. Moreover, can anyone please tell me what will happen as the trial is going to start and the person is going to plead not guilty.
Thank you very much.

There was some sort of proof and their Solicitor would have advised what is likely to happen.

Being charged and being convicted are two different things.
You say the charge isn't true- so why then were the charges brought?
There must be some proof of the injury - your relative needs to find out what proof there is- and if they don't have a lawyer defending them, they need one NOW. It's also important for you not to post any more details of any kind, anywhere.

" there is no proof/evidence meaning there are no independent witnesses, no fingerprints or cctv camera footage" UNTRUE! This person would not have been charged and the CPS would not been taking it to court if that was the case, so you may have been told this by your 'relation' but he is not telling the truth
