Whether prosecution has the right to cross examine the accused if he chooses to file the written statement u/s 243 crpc before the Ld JMIC
Sir,
In 498-A case, The prosecution evidences has been completed and we donot want to lead the evidences but to file the written statement as per 243 Crpc. Since accused is not bound to say anything on oath whether prosecution reserves the right to cross examine the accused if we donot lead any defence witnesses but chose to file the written statement with documents to prove our innocence?
