2015 P Cr. LJ 1566
Document not part of challan was produced during cross-examination of witness
Objection that the document which was not part of challan, same could not be exhibited or taken into consideration during cross-examination of witness, was devoid of force, as same was produced by the witness on the asking of defence counsel during cross-examination, and same was exhibited by the Trial Court---No bar existed to produce document, especially, when a particular question was asked by the defence counsel to witness regarding the production of the same before the Police during investigation---Court could not refuse to admit the document which was relevant for the decision of the case---Search of truth was the primary duty imposed upon the court for administration of justice and court could not base its opinion, merely on technicalities---No right was explicitly available to accused to secure legal representation at State expenses in the matters, other than entailing capital punishment
