Case law on inadmissible evidence under council statement .
The fault with the rent receipt (Exhibit-P2) was that it was introduced into evidence through the statement of counsel without the counsel being sworn in as a witness. This procedural lapse made the receipt inadmissible under the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984, which requires documentary evidence to be supported by a witness who can testify to its authenticity under oath. A unique point decided in the judgment is the careful scrutiny of the admissibility of evidence, particularly the rent receipt (Exhibit-P2). The court emphasized that the rent receipt was crucial for the case but ruled it inadmissible because it wasn't proven according to the Qanun-e-Shahadat Order, 1984. This highlights the importance of following procedural rules in presenting evidence, which can greatly influence legal outcomes. HCJDA 38.
