Have you ever noticed

Sir,

      Have you ever noticed that generally when application is filed by accused, court says his counsel to identify the accused. while the accused is arrested before by police / prosecution itself.


But when any person comes in court as witness, no body asks about his identification. How can any body recognize him that he is the actual person who is listed as witness in witness list.

Accused may recognize him if he is already acquainted with him, but what will be if there is an exemption on behalf of accused or if accused is not already acquainted with this person. Even there is no ducument attached with charge sheet containing his signature or photo, that it may be compared during trial.

Courts seems to be blind on this issue and put blind faith on prosecution.
