This query is : Resolved
Dear sir, If the witnesses are habitual to give the deposition in the courts and numbers of cases registered on them and if they are giving the deposition in the case of murder so is it admissible?
we filed a R.T.I application regarding the cases registered on them and according to the rti report numbers of cases have been registered on them.
is there any relative judgments of the s.c. court on the same issue, it will be very useful bcs we are going to argument in the said case please.

The credibility of such witness shall be under cloud but this is not conclusive proof to totally discard the evidence of such person.
