Property seizure

Can Property/Material Objects be submitted before the Court after the Charge sheet is filed by the Investigation agency.
Situation1: If it is seized at crime stage but was not produced before the court ?
Situation2: Charge is filed and then further investigation or re-ivestigation is ordered by the Court. Can the property be seized during this stage.
Pls advice.

YES, IF RECOVERED AT A LATER STAGE.
APP to convince Court, and court may allow it in the interest of justice, if not filling the lacuna of prosecution
Adv.R.P.Chugh (Expert) 12 April 2012
In situation 1 - the prosecution would have a tough time - as it is tantamount to filling up lacunae in prosecution case - however if the same was not very relevant earlier but got relevant due to events that transpired during the trial - it can be allowed in the ends of justice.

In the 2nd situation - it is permissible per se.
Shonee Kapoor (Expert) 12 April 2012
Agreed with Ld. Chugh.
