yes.
Advocate. Arunagiri (Expert) 13 November 2010
All the false allegations are not false evidences. Only if the false statement is given on oath, (either as witness or through affidavit), you can file a petition u/s 340 cr.p.c. It is upto the trial court to decided whether to initiate prosecution or not. Even if the false evidence is given you can initiate a private complaint. Only the presiding officer of that court can order for prosecution. Please read cr.p.c 340 and 195 1 B & 193 IPC.
