Submission of Main points to Judge before verdict delivery

[Dr. Ashok Dhamija]

It is always advantageous to submit the written arguments at the conclusion of the case, wherein you can mention all your main points in respect of each and every piece of allegation and/or in respect of the evidence that has come against you.

So, take every allegation and the evidence that has come on record against you, and then give a reply to it along with your defence and your explanation in respect of that. You can explain as to how such allegation is not substantiated on record by evidence.

Section 314 of the Criminal Procedure Code also permits a memorandum of arguments to be submitted by each party in writing at the conclusion of the trial.
