ASGAR FANSOFKAR (Querist) 10 June 2024 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sirs,

A case has been filed under IPC section 323, 427,34 and the accused is under plea. Can the investigation officer produce new evidences to the court which he has not submitted along with the charge sheet.

Also please give reference of any such case of past.

Thanks and regards

Quick Summary

This discussion addresses whether an Investigation Officer (IO) can submit new evidence to the court after the accused has entered a plea and a charge sheet has been filed. Generally, additional evidence can be presented under Section 173(8) of the Cr.P.C., but this requires the court's permission for further investigation. If the new evidence is irrelevant, it can be challenged.

If the IO is introducing new evidence which is irrelevant to the subject matter then it can be challenged properly

The IO can produce additional evidence after submitting charge sheet under section 173(8) cr.p.c with permission from court for further investigation.

Yes, it could only be with the permission of the Court.
