(1) The court or the investigating officer concerned shall send intimation to the prison authorities about under trial prisoners who have turned approver or have made a confession. (2) When an under trial prisoner makes a confession or turns approver, he shall be kept separate and prevented from communicating with other under trial prisoners in the same case. Care must be taken, however, that they are not kept in solitary confinement. (3) In cases in which after a confession has been recorded and no intimation has been received from the Magistrate or the investigating officer that separate confinement is no longer necessary, the Superintendent may seek the orders of the Court concerned or inputs from the investigating officer as the case may be, as to the approver’s separate confinement.
