https://lawtimesjournal.in/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/Rajasthan-HC.png1200628A plea was recently dismissed by the Rajasthan High Court in which the accused contended that his voice sample cannot lawfully be taken against his wishes, as that case would amount to self-incrimination under the purview of Article 20 of the Constitution of India. Article 20 (3) says that no individual who is deemed guilty of any offence shall be forced to be a witness against himself.
