क्या मेरे पति रिकॉर्ड की गई बातचीत और सीसीटीवी का कानूनी तौर पर मेरे खिलाफ इस्तेमाल कर सकते हैं?

Advocate A M Iktear Uddin (anik) Answered: 24 Dec 2024

Your husband, however, cannot legally produce any recorded conversations against you, since these are contraventions of your right to privacy under Article 21 of the Indian Constitution. Such unauthorised recordings of any individual's conversations, for example, have been ruled to violate personal dignity and confidentiality. Likewise, installing CCTV cameras without seeking permission may be challenged by an individual as an infringement on privacy. The courts tend to hold individual rights in marriage supreme, with the fact that marital trust does not constitute a right to spy or record without consent. Consequently, the recordings and CCTV footage will probably be inadmissible in any legal proceedings against you.

Generally speaking, it is held in India that the recording of conversations without the other party's consent constitutes a violation of rights pertaining to privacy. Catena of judgments in the Punjab and Haryana High Court have held that evidence in the form of recording cannot be permitted in family law cases as such recording has been held violative of the right to privacy under Article 21 of the Constitution. Similarly, CCTV footage installed without consent may also be challenged on privacy grounds. Your husband, therefore, cannot use these recordings against you in court.

सर, अगर आपके पति ने बिना आपकी सहमति के आपकी बातें रिकॉर्ड की हैं या CCTV लगाई है, तो यह भारतीय टेलीग्राफ अधिनियम और आईटी एक्ट के तहत प्राइवेसी कानूनों का उल्लंघन हो सकता है। आप इसे कोर्ट में चुनौती दे सकती हैं और आईटी एक्ट की धारा 66E या महिलाओं के घरेलू हिंसा अधिनियम के तहत शिकायत दर्ज कर सकती हैं। आपको एक विशेषज्ञ वकील से सलाह लेनी चाहिए जो आपको उचित कदम उठाने में मदद करेगा। अधिक कानूनी सहायता के लिए हमारी हेल्पलाइन नंबर पर संपर्क करें।
