yes certificate is required 65 b. 65B Certificate is a Certificate submitted to a Court in India for the purpose of producing Electronic or Digital Evidence in certain cases. It is called 65B Certificate because the Certificate is prescribed under section 65B of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872

Yes, video can be accepted as evidence in court. It is advisable that you should consult a lawyer physically and explain the incident in detail instead of implicating yourself through confession. If you need any other assistance do not hesitate to contact us.

As an Advocate, to give you best advise, I will need following questions answered:-
1. Details about your employment or profession - Are you a government employee or a private individual?
2. Circumstances under which the bribe was offered to you - Was the bribe offered willingly or was it under any kind of duress?
3. Details of the third party - Who is the third party? What is his/her relationship to you?
4. Evidence available - Apart from the recording


yes, video can be accepted as valid evidence, once it gets certificate of S 65B INDIAN EVIDENCE ACT.
