Court of Session to send copy of finding and sentence to District Magistrate
AI Assist
Summary
When a trial is held by the Court of Session or a Chief Judicial Magistrate, the court must forward a copy of its finding and any sentence to the District Magistrate whose local jurisdiction covers the place of trial. That gives the District Magistrate an official record for local administration and execution.
Example
