Sec 319 - can it be used before evidence?

This is about sec 319 crpc - can it be used before the evidence stage?

Thanks

Yes, at any stage.

Thanks for the clarification but on what basis? I was under the impression that they need a strong evidence to invoke 319

Not necesarily evidence, if there is sufficient material on chargesheet, it can be invoked at the stage of framing of charges itself.
