CrPC 161 statements are valid

(Querist) 29 July 2011 This query is : Resolved 
Dear All,

Kindly inform/clarify that,

1)is it correct that the CrPc 161 statements recorded by designated
CI-IO-SHO can sign on that statement.

2)As per CrPC 161 statements, LW can say that witness came to know about the offence[498a] only through the complainant & her parents and not by others/seeing.

3)Does these statements are valid

Elighten me please...

Every recorded statement u/s 161 crpc taken by IO/ CI/ SHO is signed by the person who is recording but not by the witness who is giving statement.

2. Witness can give statements as he has seen or heard or how he percieves.

3. All statements recorded u/s 161 are valid until refuted by witness during trial.
