| Note: After a few seconds... she answered: `Siya po ay nagkakayod.' (He made a pumping motion.)"[15] Indeed, complainant's testimony, stamped with consistency and accuracy, must be given full faith and credit.[16] When a woman testifies that she has been raped, she says in effect, all that is necessary to show that rape has been committed, for as long as her testimony meets the test of credibility.[17] | |||||

| As already stated, the Court agrees that the trial court erred in convicting accused-appellant of rape on five (5) counts. Since the Information specifically charged him with only one (1) act of rape, i.e., committed on 8 September 1990, then consistent with his constitutional right to be informed of the nature and cause of the accusation against him, he cannot be held liable for the other incidents of rape committed at other times which may have been established during the trial, other than on the date alleged in the Information.[21] | |||||
