Pls help me....

(Querist) 02 March 2013 This query is : Resolved 
Dear experts,

In a bribery case ,I am one of the accused and there were as many as 5 accused in the charge sheet.My Mobile was seized from me and it is still with ACB. I was using a SIM card which was registered in my co-worker's name,who was also initially arraigned as one of the accused in the FIR. Now ,the charge-sheets have recently been filed and my co-worker has been let off for want of evidence and he is no longer accused.

My Number features in the CDR of many concerned individuals/accused, which were furnished along with the chargesheet.(as documents relied upon by ACB).While i see enough documents identifying the owner and the Sim card in respect of other accused,in my case ACB has not even obtained a statement from my co-worker to the effect that i was using the SIM registered in his name. I do not also see any CDR in respect of my mobile/SIM card too...

1.How can the prosecution prove that it was indeed the number i was using?

2.Is IMEI no of my seized cell phone enough to prove that i was the one who was using that number?

3.Is it because my Co-worker has merely been let off for want of evidence and was accused as per FIR that ACB did not obtain a statement.?

Kindly clarify....Thanking you.

1. Nothing can be got opined without going through the charge-sheet filed by prosecution.

2. Yes.

3. If no sufficient material is found during the investigation against a particular accused, he can be got discharged as has been done in the given matter.

One additional suggestion. Don't bother about your co-worker. You need to stress upon your own case.
