Every recorded statement u/s 161 crpc taken by IO/ CI/ SHO is signed by the person who is recording but not by the witness who is giving statement.

2. Witness can give statements as he has seen or heard or how he percieves.

3. All statements recorded u/s 161 are valid until refuted by witness during trial.
