Which of the following deals with the period of detention undergone by the accused to be set off against the sentence of imprisonment?
Section 286 Cr. P.C.
Incorrect AnswerSection 428 Cr. P.C.
Correct AnswerSection 588 Cr. P.C
Incorrect AnswerSection 289 Cr. P.C.
Incorrect AnswerExplanation:
- Section 428 Cr. P.C.: This section deals with setting off the period of detention that the accused has already undergone against the sentence of imprisonment. It ensures that the time spent in custody before the conviction is subtracted from the period of imprisonment awarded.
- Section 286 Cr. P.C.: This section does not relate to detention or setting off imprisonment time. It deals with procedures regarding evidence, not imprisonment.
- Section 588 Cr. P.C.: There is no Section 588 in the Criminal Procedure Code. It seems to be either a typographical error or a fictional section.
- Section 289 Cr. P.C.: This section involves procedures related to trial of warrant cases and does not pertain to setting off detention.
