A PIECE OF JUDGE’S SPEECH: INDIA’S HARISH SALVE ARGUES CASE FOR KULBHUSHAN JADHAV (A FORENSIC LINGUISTIC STUDY)

Abstract

 Forensic Linguistics became famous when a linguist named Jan Startvik uncovered a murder case in 
his report entitled The Evans Statements: A Case for Forensic Linguistics in 1968. The aim of this research is  to described a judge’s speech: India’s Harish Salve argues case for Kulbhushan Jadhav (A Forensic Linguistic  study). This research used descriptive qualitative method. This study used lexical semantics (verbal  communication such as sounds,words, language and speech) in visual media. This research method used  qualitative by describing the data. The result shows that the attorney is attempting to learn more about the  witness who testified that contributions are permissible in accordance with Presidential Decree No. 52 of 1995  and Regional Regulation No. 8 of 1995. Where the witness will implicitly recollect the incident and the legal  grounds upon why he issued the policy. The terminology used in the preceding paragraph was the most  intriguing aspect. It contains explicit language and an introduction before posing the question. And it appeared  quite confusing. This was intended to disrupt the witness's concentration. So that the judge can determine if the  witness answered the question tentatively or confidently. If there is uncertainty, the witness will likely feel 
uncertain or will make a false statement.
