Abstract
The right to maintain the confidentiality of telephone calls and electronic conversations is a right guaranteed by most legislations and constitutions as the “electronic surveillance” on personal calls is considered a violation of personal life if not done according to law. Accordingly, this research aims to demonstrate the authenticity of electronic surveillance of sound and image between criminal proof and the protection of private life. It was found that the authenticity of audio-visual imaging must be subject to the legality of evidence as if the imaging lost this legality was considered false evidence and could lead to the criminal accountability.
