That means that there is a deficiency in the chargesheet and you should immediately report this issue in the court where your matter is pending. Or you can always apply for the certified copy of the chargesheet from the judicial file. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.

The Chargesheet contains the initial statement of the witnesses and in your the case the most probable situation could be that the pages containing the statements are missing or has not been attached by the police.

It is a very serious matter and you have identified it at very right time. It often happens that IO in a case investigates the matter in favour of complainant, though IO has to investigate only and collect all the evidence and should not suppress anything favouring accused. You should immediately contact your advocate to rectify the error.

You don’t hv to get into the technical part therefore it’s better to hire expert advocate for your Defense and start answering his questions instead of yours !
Expert advocate will frame all his questions to cross examine the prosecution
Thanks
