No !!!! Accused is Interrogated by police only aftewards his statements are recorded as per the result of interrogation.
Police cannot accept affidavit of accused person, nor they can be bound by law to accept any affidavit so there is no question of any procedure.

The case is already in court , and now the turn is for statment of accused. My question is whether accused can submit his statement in the form of affidavit.
advocate praveen (prop.) 17 May 2013
No!. Accused will appear befoer the Court and depose the statement as stated before the I.O.. And other lawyer will cross on the statement to prove the case.
