کیا یہ سچ ہے کہ قنون شاہادات آرڈر 1984 کے آرٹیکل 70 میں یہ فراہم کیا گیا ہے کہ تمام حقائق زبانی شواہد سے ثابت ہوسکتے ہیں؟
- Yes
- No, it is provided by Article 71
- No, all facts, except the contents of documents, may be proved by oral evidence
- None of these
Explanation
Oral evidence is generally admissible for facts in a case, but not for the contents of a document. The contents of a document must be proven by primary (the original document itself) or, in specific circumstances, secondary evidence.
Article 70 of the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984, explicitly states this exclusion. It says, "All facts, except the contents of documents, may be proved by oral evidence".
The document is the best evidence of its own contents. This is a fundamental principle of evidence law. Oral testimony about what a document says is not considered reliable or admissible, as documents speak for themselves.
