Marking of document by Court while examining PW during the course of Chief Examination.

(Querist) 13 May 2008 This query is : Resolved 
Can the learned expert offer his well considered opinion in regard to :

The special court had marked the documents as a prosecution document without being referred by public prosecutor and that too, it is xerox copy. Two to three documents were marked as a prosecution document out of which one is xerox. This happened during the course of deposition/examination of prosecution witness by learned PP.

Please clarify on this point as I am very much impressed by analysis.

The Court can put exiexhibit mark on any document even on photo copy or any thing it deem necessary to decide the proper controvercy. The Document shall be marked as Court Exhibit 1, 2 or so on. By Exhibition of a document, it does not mean that the docudment is proved. Its proof is necessary. You may find wide law on this point.

It appears OK. Would you kindly provide clue under what provisions of CrPC or any other law court can resort to this action? Does not amount to stepping into shoes of the prosecution or defence as the case may be.
