Abstract:
Whether a Singapore court has the power to exclude evidence admissible in criminal proceedings, and if so, in what circumstances it may be exercised, appear to be some of the more elusive questions in the law of evidence. No less than four judicial approaches are discernable from 1964 until 2008. The purpose of this article is to examine the developments in this area of the law and to consider how the courts may go forward.
