What is Direct Evidence?

Evidence inferred from facts
Testimony given by a non-witness
Testimony given by a witness who has witnessed it directly
Evidence collected from social media

The correct answer is: Testimony given by a witness who has witnessed it directly

Direct evidence refers to any evidence that is based on personal knowledge or observation and can be verified by the witness who saw or experienced it first-hand. Option A is incorrect because it involves making an inference, which means drawing a conclusion based on evidence rather than directly observing it. Option B is incorrect because the testimony is given by a non-witness, meaning someone who did not experience or observe the event themselves. Option D is incorrect because evidence collected from social media may not always be reliable or first-hand. Therefore, option C is the correct answer as it involves testimony given by someone who directly witnessed the event.
