Indian Evidence Act, 1872

IEA Section 25 in BSA

§ 25 IEA§ 23(1) BSA

Confession to police officer not to be proved. Section 25 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 (Confession to police officer not to be proved) corresponds to Section 23(1) of the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023.

Note: Absolute bar, whether or not in custody

Verify before you rely on this. Renumbering under the 2023 codes is not a clean one-to-one exercise — provisions were merged, split and reworded. Always check the printed bare act.

Practise it

Section 45 has AIBE 22 questions on this area, each cited to both codes with a line telling you where to find it in the bare act. Ten questions per subject are free.
