Section 106 of the Evidence Act
That for an F.I.R. lodged by a deceased person to be considered substantial, its contents must be proven. It must be corroborated and established for it to hold any value in the case. The F.I.R. can also be used by the defense to challenge the credibility of the person who lodged it under Section 154(3) of the Evidence Act.
The court clarified the correct procedure, emphasizing that when a witness is cross-examined using their Section 161 Cr.P.C. statements, the specific portion being used for contradiction must first be formally introduced as evidence through the investigating officer before it can be considered.
That if the witness who identified a person or an item in the Test Identification Parade (TIP) is not examined during the trial, the TIP report, which could be used to either corroborate or challenge their identification, loses its evidentiary value for identification purposes.
Recently it is held by Apex Court that a conviction under Section 34 of the IPC requires active involvement or a shared common intention in committing the criminal act.
