Victim cannot introduce new evidence during trial if it was not in chargesheet, Orissa HC rules
The Orissa high court has dismissed a victim's plea seeking to introduce a pen drive containing recordings of her and the accused as evidence during an ongoing criminal trial. The court held that the victim could not place material before the trial court that was not part of the charge sheet and said the accused's rights under criminal procedure could not be overlooked.
