It is not fatal to prosecution.

I do agree with Mr. Assumi. Thanx Mr. Assumi, for providing such valuable judgement.

Such non examination will not create any doubt on the prosecution story hence, that will not affect the prosecution case. Evidence of the Investigation officer itself is sufficient.
