Bombay High Court Orders Voice Sample in Matrimonial Dispute

The Aurangabad bench of the Bombay High Court has mandated a woman to submit her voice sample, favoring her estranged husband's allegations of an extra-marital affair by utilizing electronic evidence.

The decision, passed by Justice Shailesh Brahme on May 9, highlights the significance of electronic evidence in legal proceedings, even when the Domestic Violence Act lacks direct provisions for such directives.

The court dismissed the woman's arguments against the admissibility of the memory card and CD provided by her husband, asserting the need for technology-driven evidence verification.
