Dear Sir/Madam,
Police is no such authority who can assume someone as a person with weak memory or a person as a hila hua person without any support of any such medical evidence or report from an expert.

if the police is not investigating the case properly, file a complaint against the said police officers or a private complaint before the Illaqa Magistrate. the police cannot just assume on the mere statement of the accused that he is having weak memory, etc

There are varying degrees of evidence in law as defined by the Indian Evidence Act. While the statement of a policeman in this regard would not be of any evidentiary value unless backed documentary evidence or some other evidence to corroborate the same, on the other hand, the statement of a medical officer specialized in the particular field would be of high evidentiary value.
