Trial to be conducted by Public Prosecutor

Every trial in a Court of Session must be conducted by a Public Prosecutor. The Public Prosecutor represents the State, presenting evidence, examining witnesses and arguing the case. Private individuals cannot replace the Public Prosecutor to conduct the prosecution in these trials.

Priya files an FIR and the case is committed to the Sessions Court. At trial a Public Prosecutor appointed by the State examines witnesses and argues the case for the prosecution. Priya cannot act as the prosecutor in place of the Public Prosecutor.
