Examination of witness can be made by police___

This is governed by Section 180 of the BNSS 1. Orally : Section 180(1) states that a police officer making an investigation may examine orally any person supposed to be acquainted with the facts and circumstances of the case. 2. In Writing : Section 180(3) states that the police officer may reduce into writing any statement made to him in the course of an examination under this section. The BNSS has introduced a significant technological update to this process. Section 180(3) now explicitly provides that such statements "may also be recorded by audio-video electronic means" . While the base requirement remains oral examination followed by a written record, the inclusion of electronic recording is a major shift from the previous regime.
