Circumstantial evidence

Under an indication (from Latin: indicare = show ) is understood in procedural law a notice that allows the conclusion on the existence of a fact by itself or in an ensemble with other evidence. In general, an indication is more than a statement, but less than a proof.

The law applies as evidence a proven fact can be derived in conclusion of the Court for another, not directly from the proven fact. Circumstantial evidence in criminal proceedings is proof of the offense on the basis of facts that are not directly the result to be proved process, but allow a conclusion on this.
