Neighbour's affidavit amounts to tampering of evidence: bomb

 

Neighbour's affidavit amounts to tampering of evidence: Bombay high court

 

MUMBAI: The Bombay high court has said that an affidavit filed in favour of an accused by a neighbour in an anticipatory bail hearing "amounted to tampering with evidence". Justice Sadhana Jadhav said the "practice of filing such affidavits is deprecated as it hampers the process of investigation" and "amounts to tampering of evidence".
In February, after a woman hanged herself, the Kandivli police registered a case against her mother-in-law Sakuran Jamalluddin Gori (65) and a couple of other people for cruelty and abetment to suicide. Gori and her two sons moved the HC for pre-arrest bail. They were granted interim protection, but on April 5, the prosecutor said the post-mortem report, which was received later, revealed that there were injury marks, along with ligature marks, on the neck to indicate the woman was assaulted prior to her death.
