Section 94 BNSS | Trial Courts Must Preserve Electronic Evidence at Pre-Trial Stage to Uphold Fair Trial Rights : MP HC Gwalior
The Madhya Pradesh High Court ruled that applications under Section 94 BNSS for preserving electronic evidence, such as call records and digital transactions, must be decided promptly at the pre-trial stage. Delaying consideration until the defence evidence stage risks prejudice and violates Article 21 fair trial rights, particularly in alibi defences.
