I suppose, somehow you have been misconceived. If you were made accused you won't be a witness of the case by any one except yourself . You did not say whether you already get any bail or not ? Or whether you had to pled not guilty before the court or not? In which court your case is pending etc. Your question is ambiguous.

if the situation is arise that magistrate is going to convict but in such type of case rare of conviction but if you are in mental tension you can plead guilty as per provision of law before judgement at any stage of trial and paid fine and get rid of the case .
