The Empress vs Pitambur Singh on 8 December, 1879
Amongst a large majority of people of this country marriage is concluded with much ceremonies and publicity and as such there cannot be any difficulty on the part of the prosecution for leading evidence to prove the legality of the marriage by adducing evidence. In the absence of such evidence, mere statement of the complaint that he was legally married is difficult to be relied upon. It is, therefore, necessary in such cases that good evidence must be led to give strict proof of legal marriage having been performed. I am supported in my view by a Full Bench decision of the Calcutta High Court in Empress v. Pitambur Singh (1880) ILR 5 Cal 566 and that of the Allahabad High Court in Emperor v. Buddhu (1920) ILR 42 All 401 : 21 Cri LJ 368.
