54 In Ajit vs State 1997 Cr LJ 3964 (SC) : (1997)7 SCC 110 it was held that “Section 73 does not specify by whom the comparison shall be made. However, looking to the other provisions of the Act it is clear that it can be made by a handwriting expert (sec 45) or by anyone familiar with the handwriting Sec 47 or by the court itself.” So, P.W. 15 had stated his opinion and according to his opinion the admitted writings and signatures marked “J”, “J1”, “K”, “L” and “M” i.e. those documents marked exhibits 13/3, 14/2, 15/2 and 16/2 by this court also executed the writings and signatures marked “I” i.e. exhibit 10 marked by this court and exhibit 10 is the admission form of Animesh Boxi. In a judgment reported in AIR1973 SC 1346 it was held that “Court not to give much weight to the evidence of handwriting expert. His evidence must yield to the positive evidence in court.” In another judgment S. Gopal Reddy v State (1996) 4 SCC 596 it was held that “The evidence of an expert is rather weak type of evidence and all courts do not generally consider it as offering conclusive proof and therefore safe to rely upon the same without seeking independent and reliable corroboration.” Section 47 of the Indian Evidence Act states about opinion as to handwriting, when relevant. In a judgment AIR 1959 SC 93; AIR 1959 SC 443 it was held that “Proof of signature - opinions of a handwriting expert and any person acquainted with the handwriting are admissible.
