I would assume so, if they are evidence.

Why? Do you have something to hide?

[dizzle1234]

no i was wondering because i would prefer that they get red out as the doctors an police statments are for me so i would rather them i was jus woundering if they would coz i no when i asked if i could no wat was on the doctors state they sed its confordental an couldnt tell me

Hi dizzle:

Yes, unfortunately, it is inevitable that any witness statements would be read out to the Court if they form part of the prosecution case against the defendant.

I'm assuming that the hearing is at Magistrates Court? If so, members of the public would be allowed in, plus local reporters as well unless, for whatever reason, the case was being heard "in camera" (in private), which I also assume it isn't?

Sorry, but I hope this at least helps to answer your queries.
