CCTV- CLOSED-CIRCUIT TELEVISION. It’s when you use videotape cameras to transmit a signal to a specific, limited set of observers. The cameras may transfer the footage to observers where it can be watched in real-time by another person, or it may be recorded for unborn viewing. CCTV records images of people in certain public places including city centers, roads, airfields, and on public transport. CCTV images can be used as substantiation in court. You can request a CCTV recording of yourself. The Indian Evidence Act has tried to convey the basic concept of the identity of a person through CCTV. CCTV footage has an important place in the Indian Evidence Act section. Those evidence are hidden from the eyes of the common man in the CCTV cameras. , but it is well used in forensic science. Can be used as a notion of proving crime Prove crime with digital technology i.e. CCTV Can be used as an estimate of the extent of crimes committed by criminals Unfortunately the quality of video recording resolution was recorded and It is not easy to analyse due to the lack of light. Electronics documents are permissible as material substantiation. The computer-generated electronic records in substantiation are permissible at a trial if proved in the manner specified by section 65B of the substantiation act. In this paper, we will discuss the CCTV Footage Evidence used as Digital Evidence and its importance in the Criminal Justice System in India.
