File application in court to take on record those mails. Trial Court Can Summon Or Rely Upon Documents Not Part Of Charge Sheet. Application will file under Code of Criminal procedure. Instead on the basis of those chats, you should have filed quash petition in High Court.
1) you must prepare transcripts of chat
2) certificate u/s 65B of the evidence act becomes essential. has to be filed by you
Dear Sir,
In India, the message would be treated as an "electronic record" and admissible in courts as a conventional document would be, as per Section 65(B) of Indian Evidence Act provided:
As stated by others, the message would be subject to the same tests as documents otherwise admissible are subjected to.
- In WhatsAp there is option to export chat.
- Same can be submitted to court U/s 29 A of IPC.
Regards
Vivek Arya
The whole chat shoukd be presented to the court under s.65B of the evidence act. Electronic evidence is admissible and hence it will save you.
Regards
WhatsApp chat is not admissible as a primary evidence incase but it can be admitted as document under section 65 of Indian Evidence Act 1872 as secondary evidence
it can be used as an evidence as per section 65B of the Evidence Act of 1872, but the acceptance of those evidence depends totally upon the discretion of the Court how ever those evidences will be taken into consideration if it fulfill certain conditions.
Dear Client,
As per facts, accused can produce WhatsApp chats (Massages) before the court under Section 65 of the Indian Evidence Act, is a special provision concerning proof of electronic records. It is primary evidence.
You can me call through KAANOON for more detail and advice.
The information extracted from her during cross examination stating that the sexual relationship was consensual would be more than sufficient since she has herself admitted this hence there is no question of rape in ti=his and the charges under section 376 is not maintainable.
What is that you are going to state in the defence witness, you may be repeating the same thing which was told by her during her evidence.
If you have any other additional evidence then you can pass on the instructions to your advocate who will be able to present the same before court during defence evidence.
