Summary of Case:	"Hari Virk was wrongly convicted of assault in 2021 in London, England in 2020. Virk's prosecution was based on the allegation he assaulted a mother and son at his rented home in west London during a viewing of the property. During Virk's trial of assaulting the son, Virk's lawyer objected to the failure of the son to appear in person, and only remotely on video. After his conviction following a bench trial, Virk appealed. During the appeal hearing his conviction was quashed and he was acquitted on the basis the son had failed to appear in court in person, and Virk was acquitted of assaulting the mother on the same ground, and thus the prosecution failed to introduce evidence of his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt."
