A contradiction is a fact or statement that questions or disproves an existing one. It is a logical conflict or incongruity, or one that cannot be reconciled with another. (A "contradiction in terms" is something that seems to contain self-contradictory elements, as in an oxymoron.)
Example : "The crime scene analysis was a direct contradiction of the suspect's version of the events."
