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

Section 419

This Act has been repealed — see The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (from 2024-07-01).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.

Direction of warrant for execution

The CrPC 1973 was replaced by the BNSS 2023 (in force 2024-07-01); no verified section mapping on file for Section 419 — confirm the corresponding provision (savings: Section 531, BNSS 2023).

Every warrant for the execution of a sentence of imprisonment shall be directed to the officer in charge of the jail or other place in which the prisoner is, or is to be, confined.
