I think there are more then thousand citations are available on this issue that summoning of accused can be done only on evidence of sole complainant.Even the conviction can be held on the evidence of sole complainant.

if the evidence of the complainant was in itself sufficient to call for an offence, no need to count heads unnecessary.

Yes If complainant's evidence and other supporting documents/ proof are ample. There is no need of 202.
