In the present electronic age Pl. tell me if the E mails exchanged between two conspirators are admissible as evidence.
Similarly in adultery whether recorded Telephone conversation having illicit relation talks can stand to prove the offence.

Recorded Telephone conversation, emails are of course admissible in evidence. In case of tape recorded conversation, the voice should be identified, the tape should be clearly audible, the accuracy of the tape that it was not tampered with should be proved. Such evid. have to be substantiated by other evidences to prove the existance of the facts. But nevertheless it can be an imp. piece of evid.

TELEPHONIC CONVERSATION RECORDING IS A CRIME AS PER THE INDIAN TELEGRAPHIC ACT, HENCE THE WHERE IS THE QUESTION OF PRODUCING AS EVIDENCE?
ANY EMAIL IS ADMISSIBLE IN LAW AS PER IT ACT 2000, WITH AUTHENTICATION FROM THE PROVIDER OR SUPPORTING PROOF OF ORIGIN.

As per Sec.3 of Indian Evidence Act as amended by Act 21 of 2000, "Evidence" means and includes "all documents including electronic records produced for the inspection of the Court". So, the email contents and the recordings of telephonic talks are "evidence", as per Law. They could very well be used as evidence - the proof of the same shall be according to the guiding Laws as suggested by Advs.Archana and Reddi.
