Section 65B Evidence Act | Self-Certification of Electronic Evidence from Personal Devices Valid Without Third-Party Certificate : Andhra Pradesh HC
The Andhra Pradesh High Court ruled that electronic evidence from personal devices, including WhatsApp chats, emails, and digital photographs, can be admitted under Section 65B of the Evidence Act with a self-certificate alone, provided it meets statutory requirements. This clarifies a critical procedural hurdle in family law and other litigation, eliminating the need for third-party certification for evidence generated from personal devices.
