In
criminal cases, no fee is paid to any witness, including the doctor, at the
time of serving the summons. The summoned doctor must attend the Court and give
evidence because of the interest of the State in securing truth/justice;
otherwise the doctor will be charged with contempt of Court. However, in
criminal cases, conveyance charges and daily allowance can be claimed by the
doctor according to Government rules.
