Indian Evidence Act (IEA) 1872 Relevancy of Facts

Admissions made before the customs authorities are not hit by which of the following section of the Indian Evidence Act?

Section 26

Section 32

Section 35

both (A) and (C)

Explanation:

- Section 26: Deals with the inadmissibility of confessions made in police custody unless made in the presence of a Magistrate. It doesn’t apply to admissions made before customs authorities. Your understanding aligns with the condition provided for Section 26.

- Section 32: Covers cases where statements, written or verbal about relevant facts, are made by a person who cannot be called as a witness. It doesn’t directly connect to admissions before customs authorities.

- Section 35: Relates to entries in public records and their relevance as evidence. It doesn’t specifically deal with admissions before customs authorities either.

- Both (A) and (C): Suggests that both options are unrelated to the question, but this pairing doesn’t add value here.

?? Correct Answer: Section 26
