The Code of Criminal Procedure

The Code of Criminal Procedure is a set of laws that outlines how criminal cases are investigated, tried, and resolved in India. It provides the rules for police investigations, arrests, bail, and trials, ensuring justice is administered fairly. The code balances the rights of individuals with the need for law enforcement, guiding procedures for conducting hearings, presenting evidence, and delivering judgments. Its goal is to ensure that criminal justice is conducted transparently, efficiently, and in accordance with the law, protecting the rights of both victims and accused persons.
