Bare Acts › Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (CrPC)

Section 282

This Act has been repealed — see The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (from 2024-07-01). The prior text continues to govern matters arising before that date.

Interpreter to be bound to interpret truthfully

The CrPC 1973 was replaced by the BNSS 2023 (in force 2024-07-01); no verified section mapping on file for Section 282 — confirm the corresponding provision (savings: Section 531, BNSS 2023).

When the services of an interpreter are required by any Criminal Court for the interpretation of any evidence or statement, he shall be bound to state the true interpretation of such evidence or statement.
