where the Post Mortem report is marked by consent and where its genuineness is not disputed, it is clearly admissible in evidence.
provisions contained in Section 294 of Cr. P.C. that once the document is marked by consent, it could be read in evidence under Section 294 of Cr. P.C. and the genuineness of which cannot be disputed by any of the parties in the subsequent proceedings. He contended that any document referred to in Section 294 of Cr. P.C. includes even the PM report and when once the genuineness of which is not disputed by any of the parties, it could be looked into for all practical purposes and it is a piece of evidence on which the prosecution as well as the defense can rely upon.
