Presumption as to documents: contents and signatures are presumed genuine unless rebutted; unstamped but admissible documents may be received.

Where a document produced, seized or received from abroad is tendered by the prosecution, the court shall, unless the contrary is proved, presume the truth of its contents and that the signature or handwriting is that of the person it purports to be, and that executed or attested documents were executed or attested by the purported person; such documents may be admitted in evidence notwithstanding they are not duly stamped if otherwise admissible.
