I want to know that whether an accused can represent him in his own case, whether he can defend himself or not in the particular case if he does not have or want to appoint any lawyer
A.Dear Sir,
In criminal case if the accused is unable to defend himself then Court will provide him free advocate on the other hand accused is at liberty to conduct his own case which is called as “Party-in-Person”. You are allowed to cross examine all the witnesses including Investigation Officers.
