What constitutes Documentary Evidence?

  1. Oral testimonies only

  2. Only digital files

  3. Any written thing capable of being made evidence

  4. Evidence that cannot be physically handled

The correct answer is: Any written thing capable of being made evidence

Documentary evidence refers to any written or recorded evidence that can be used in a court of law. This can include things like letters, contracts, receipts, and photographs, as well as digital files like emails, text messages, and social media posts. Option A and B are incorrect because they limit the definition to only oral testimony or digital files, respectively. Option D is also incorrect because documentary evidence does not have to be physical and can include electronic forms. Therefore, the most comprehensive and accurate option is C.
