Supreme Court says Sessions Court can summon a person even if police did not name them in chargesheet, if enough evidence is present. This is allowed right at the start of the trial under Section 193 CrPC.
The Supreme Court Yesterday (Dec 13) expressed its strong disapproval at a trial court’s failure to frame charges and commence trial in a case of attempt to murder dating back to 2016. A Bench of Justice Dipankar Datta and Justice Prashant Kumar Mishra granted bail to a man in custody since April 2017 in a case registered by Maharashtra Police in December 2016.
