Actor Assault Case| Kerala High Court Judge Recuses From Hearing Crime Branch's Plea Seeking Forensic Analysis Of Memory Card

Live Law  

Justice Kauser Edappagath of the Kerala High Court on Tuesday recused from hearing a petition moved by the Crime Branch challenging the order of the Ernakulam Additional Special Sessions Court which rejected its petition to forward the memory card allegedly containing the visuals of the crime in the 2017 actor sexual assault case for forensic examination. The said memory card is a crucial piece of evidence in the ongoing trial in the 2017 case and has been marked as an exhibit before the trial court. Immediately, upon coming to know about the change in the hash value, the prosecution requested another forensic examination of the card as part of further investigation in the case to avoid the likelihood of the accused taking undue advantage of the same. Nevertheless, the trial court dismissed this plea citing that the memory card was kept in the safe custody of the court since its production.
