GARCIA, J.
For sure, the defense of alibi, especially when corroborated , as here, mainly by relatives and friends of the accused, ought to be taken with extreme suspicion, precisely because alibi is easy to fabricate and concoct.[10] It cannot prevail over clear, direct and positive identification of the accused. The settled rule is that alibi is the weakest of all defenses, for it is easy to contrive and difficult to disprove.[11]
