yes the screen shots will be admissible but for that you have to mention clearly when at what time the screeen shots were taken and from which device, further your brother has to submit a certificate as per section 65 B of the evidence act and the said screen shots will be admitted and it can help him in his case.

Yes screen shot are part of electronic evidence and has to place before court by filing separate application accompanying affidavit and also it more important to state in affidavit about the date on which it was taken and details about the phone
