> 195. Giving or fabricating false evidence with intent to procure conviction of offence punishable
with imprisonment for life or imprisonment.-Whoever gives or fabricates false evidence intending
thereby to cause, or knowing it to be likely that he will thereby cause, any person to be convicted of an
offence which 2[by the law for the time being in force in 3[India]] is not capital, but punishable with
4[imprisonment for life], or imprisonment for a term of seven years or upwards, shall be punished as a
person convicted of that offence would be liable to be punished.
Illustration
A gives false evidence before a Court of Justice, intending thereby to cause Z to be convicted of a dacoity. The punishment
of dacoity is 4[imprisonment for life], or rigorous imprisonment for a term which may extend to ten years, with or without fine.
A, therefore, is liable to 5[imprisonment for life] or imprisonment, with or without fine.
