Hi All Experts,
I have a doubt regarding content of chargesheet. In a case,
In charge sheet it is clearly mentioned that police seized one black color china model mobile phone WITH OUT SIM CARD.This phone belongs to the person who filed the case and charge sheet is filed 2 years back.
Now the trials started. Judged asked to show the items seized. And judge found that there is no cell phone available in the seized items but only one SIM card is available.
now the person who filed the case is saying before the judge that , His SIM card is seized but not his mobile phone.
which one will judge go with ? will go with the content mentioned in the chargesheet or will he go with the items before his eyes.
can the opponent lawyer convince judge to go with only content which is mentioned in the chargesheet.
can some one clarify me all the points clearly.

a. will it be treated as civil or criminal contempt of the Courts?
b. What maximum punishment can be awarded to the contemnor?
c. Is the complainant entitled for any compensation ?

I think, there is no legal provision in Indian Law which provides for declaring a witness “hostile” by the Court in a formal manner. The witness swears that he will tell the truth and he does not swear that he will depose only in favour of the party who called him. It is not justified that a witness should be bound to depose only in favour of the party calling him.
In the aforesaid view, it is not proper that on finding an unfavourable testimony by a witness, a formal request is made for declaring him hostile and the witness is declared hostile by the Court in a formal manner without examining whether the deposition of the witness is true or false.
I want to know under which legal provision the witnesses are declared “Hostile” in Indian Courts; and if there is no such provision why this declaration is made in such a ritualistic manner. I think, there is nothing wrong if the party calling the witness comments informally that the witness has turned hostile to them, or the witness has been won over by the opposite party, etc. What I feel is that in the absence of a legal provision, it is not proper to formally label a witness as “hostile” by the Court.
I request you to kindly give your expert opinion in this matter.

Witness
Respected Learned Experts,
Sincere thanks to you for your valuable comments on my query regarding hostile witness.Ld. Mr. Bansal has commented to the point I raised. Rest of the comments are not ointing to my querry.
My querry primarily relates to the specific point as to in which legal provision it has been provided to declare a wtness "hoatile" in a FORMAL MANNER. And if there is no such provision why the Indian Courts are entertaining such exercise.
I am not against asking any type of questions to a witness to any any extent, or any kind of treatment to the witness for finding the truth. What I mean, I again repeat, the declaration of a witness as HOSTILE in a FORMAL MANNER is not proper.
