Digital Evidence

Validating Truth in the Digital Age

In modern litigation, cases are often won or lost on digital footprints. The Evidence Act 2074 (2017) modernized Nepal’s judicial system by establishing clear rules for the admissibility of electronic evidence. However, presenting emails, CCTV footage, server logs, or WhatsApp messages in a Nepali court requires strict adherence to authentication and chain-of-custody protocols to avoid having crucial evidence dismissed.
