In private complaint IPC complainant was examined statement recorded and list of documents filed. One witness also appeared before court. Then court summoned accused u/s 204. My query is that can complainant produce 2 more witness to prove the case as trial begins.

Dear Mr Raju,
Yes, complainant can produce more witnesses at the trial stage. The prosecution will have to file Application under section 311 Cr PC. The application must show how the deposition is relevant fo the case. Once the magistrate allows it, the witnesses can be produced.
