Meena Tuyekar vs State Of Goa Thr The Public Prosecutor ... on 28 August, 2024
28. Refreshing memory of a witness and that too with permission
of the Court is allowed only as per the provision of Section 159 of the
Evidence Act and secondly under Section 145 of the Evidence Act for
the purpose of contradiction. If the interpretation of the above
decision is considered that each and every witness is entitled to
refresh his memory, that too for recording examination in chief,
would be clearly against the provision of section 162 of Cr.P.C. as well
as section 145 of the Evidence Act.
