Forensic Document Analysis Request Denied Under Section 528 Due to Procedural Defects and Lack of Substantive Evidence

April 22, 2025

Case Laws     Indian Laws     HC

HC rejected the Petitioner's application for forensic document analysis under Section 528 of Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023. The Court found the request untimely and procedurally defective, noting the Petitioners' failure to provide substantive explanations for the delayed forensic examination request. Despite opportunities for cross-examination and defense presentation, the Petitioners did not lead credible evidence to support their claim. The Court emphasized that the Complaint already highlighted signature discrepancies, and the application was filed at the final arguments stage without compelling justification. Consequently, the petition was dismissed, with the Court underscoring the inadmissibility of conjecture and presumption in legal proceedings.
