Complaint

Whether a complainant in a criminal case be treated as a witness prior to taking cognizance of the case?
ஒரு குற்ற வழக்கின் புகார்தாரை அவ்வழக்கினை கொள்தகு கொள்வதற்கு முன்னர் சாட்சியாக கருத முடியுமா?

Witness for what and in which Case?

 

To the best of my knowledge, a Complaint is a one-sided version. Police after receipt of a complaint shall investigate and establish a crime and then it becomes a criminal case. The person who complained also shall be a Witness.

What are the facts? What is the context?

Yes, the Complainant can be called as a Witness by the Court before taking Cognizance when the case was instituted as a Private Complaint.

When it is a Police complaint before taking Cognizance Court will not call the Complainant as a Witness.

Best wishes...
