Which of the following case deals with the admissibility of electronic evidence in the Court of Law ?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer D
In Anvar P.V. v. P.K. Basheer (2014) the Supreme Court held that an electronic record is admissible as secondary evidence only with the certificate required by section 65B(4) of the Indian Evidence Act, and that sections 65A and 65B are a complete code on the subject. The rule was reaffirmed in Arjun Panditrao Khotkar v. Kailash Kushanrao Gorantyal (2020) and is now in section 63 of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023.
Pakala Narayana Swami v. Emperor is the leading case on dying declarations, Roop Kumar v. Mohan Thedani on exclusion of oral by documentary evidence, and Bodh Raj alias Bodha v. State of J and K on circumstantial evidence and last seen together.
