Imagine a legal battle where a person (defendant) has acquired some crucial documents from a government office, but not through the official channels. Can they use these documents in their defense during the court hearing? Would the judge ask about how they got those documents? Is there any legal precedent on this?

Under Indian law, using illegally obtained documents as evidence is generally inadmissible. A judge would likely inquire about the source of the documents, potentially leading to further investigations. While specific legal precedent may vary depending on the case, the general principle of protecting legal processes and ensuring fairness would be at the forefront.
