Preparation and supply of copies of statement of witnesses.
C.L.No.36/VIIIb-281 dated 24th September, 2003
The Hon'ble Court has observed with concern that the provisions contained in

records relating to statement of witnesses recorded u/s 161 and supply thereof to the
accused persons under Section 207 and 208 of the Code of Criminal Procedure are not
being complied with in letter and spirit causing undue delay in disposal of criminal cases.

I am, therefore, directed to request you to kindly take remedial measures for early
preparation of the records of the statement of witnesses and to supply of the copies of
statement recorded under Section 161 of the witnesses to the accused persons to ensure
speedy disposal of criminal cases.

I am also to add to kindly bring the contents of the Circular letter to the notice of
all the concerned in your Judgeship for guidance and strict compliance.
