The judge can take into account all evidence on record
Defence evidence is always considered just as plaintiff evidence. In defence evidence itself the defendant can blow apart the case of the plaintiff.
The court has to consider evidences and arguments put forth by both the prosecution as well as the defence side.
Therefore the court will consider the defence evidence if it is convincing.
