SIGNATURE/THUMB IMPRESSION CAN BE COMPARED FROM PHOTO COPY
In view of observations made by this Court in Harbans Singh and others Vs. Jagir Singh and others, 2006(1) PLJ 84, the photocopy of the document can be subjected to expert opinion, if the signatures/thumb impressions appearing on the document are apparent. The best evidence available with the party cannot be shut out on the preposterous plea that the comparison cannot be made on the basis of photocopy of the document.
