What do you mean by 'Extra Judicial confession'? What are the grounds for acceptance and rejection of extra judicial confession? Confession is generally used in criminal cases case law any?

Extra-judicial confessions were not usually considered with favour but such a confession coming from a person who had no reason to state falsely and to whom it was made in circumstances which tended to support his statement could be relied upon. The extra-judicial confession in case supported by the facts established, and together if fully establishes the guilt of the accused could become acceptable.
