Phone calls

Phone calls cannot prove adultery. Period. Try to get out of this mess as soon as possible with some mediator's help. No point in wasting time and money. 

Hope this helps.

As a general rule, evidence obtained illegally cannot be used in court, and surreptitious tape recordings by telephone are illegal in most states . You must have permission from the party being recorded or, at the very least, give the other person notice that the call is being recorded.

recorded conversation is quite weak piece of evidence.if it connects the link then it get weight.but in your case there is just a conversation without any strong evidence like cctv footage or eyewitness witnessing that than person is a regular visitor in your absence,etc.

                 as far as collection of evidence is concerned with due respect  i am quite disagree with ramachary's view. evidence is the evidence normally i never saw in my law practise that evidence is discarded merely it was obtained by illegal means.court has a discretion to decide its admissibility not an advocate.

The evidence in your possession cannot be treated as a strongevidnceto prove adultery.  This may corroborate your claim for adultery on her.  You put your efforts to gather more concrete evidences so that you challenge her 498a also simultaneously.

Even I disagree with ramachary.you can use that as secondary evidence . I don't know why he is showing mercy on a adultery and false 498a wife's. now a days these cases are running business.

I agree with Mr. Jack,

 

Causes shown by some learned members here is very disappointing.

 

Electronic evidences are valid as per Indian Evidence Act 1872 and can be produce before the court as circumstantial evidence as per section 3 of said act. Please store it in a disc (ROM) and produce if before the court and play it during your arguments.
