Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

In R.M. Malkani v. State of Maharashtra (1973) the Supreme Court held that a tape-recorded conversation is admissible in evidence, as a document, if it is relevant, the voices are identified and the accuracy of the recording is proved by excluding the possibility of tampering. The case is thus a leading authority on recorded conversations as documentary evidence; it does not concern leading questions or accomplice evidence.
