3. In my view, the objection raised on behalf of the Plaintiffs is not tenable in law and was unwarranted. As rightly argued by learned Senior Counsel for the Defendants, the question was not in relation to the contents of the document as no document was put to the witness for perusal. It was only to check the veracity, correctness and tenability of the statement made by the witness in his evidence by way of affidavit, i.e., PW-1/A and to confront the witness of his averments with respect to the previous records and his previous assertions. Therefore, the name of the counsel was not used in the manner alleged by the Plaintiffs and was only for the purpose of refreshing the memory of the witness. Accordingly, the objection cannot be sustained.
