Explanation using Example

Example 1:

Ravi was accused of a serious crime and his case was tried in the Court of Session in Mumbai. After a thorough trial, the Court of Session found Ravi guilty and sentenced him to 10 years in prison. According to Section 406 of The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2023, the Court of Session must send a copy of the finding (guilty) and the sentence (10 years in prison) to the District Magistrate of Mumbai. This ensures that the District Magistrate is informed about the outcome of the trial and can take any necessary administrative actions.

Example 2:

Meena was charged with a criminal offense and her case was heard by the Chief Judicial Magistrate in Delhi. After the trial, the Chief Judicial Magistrate acquitted Meena, finding her not guilty of the charges. As per Section 406 of The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita 2023, the Chief Judicial Magistrate is required to send a copy of the finding (not guilty) to the District Magistrate of Delhi. This procedure ensures that the District Magistrate is aware of the trial's outcome and can update the legal records accordingly.
