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

Section 434

This Act has been repealed — see The Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023 (from 2024-07-01).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

Concurrent power of Central Government in case of death sentences

The CrPC 1973 was replaced by the BNSS 2023 (in force 2024-07-01); no verified section mapping on file for Section 434 — confirm the corresponding provision (savings: Section 531, BNSS 2023).

The powers conferred by Sections 432 and 433 upon the State Government may, in the case of sentences of death, also be exercised by the Central Government.
