[amp_mcq option1=”Section 366″ option2=”Section 367″ option3=”Section 369″ option4=”Section 368″ correct=”option4″]<\/p>\n

The correct answer is (d). Section 368 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 provides power of the High Court to confirm sentence or annul conviction.<\/p>\n

Section 368 states that when an appeal is filed against an order of conviction and sentence, the High Court may, if it is satisfied that the conviction is not supported by the evidence or that the sentence is excessive, confirm the conviction and reduce the sentence, or annul the conviction and acquit the accused.<\/p>\n

Section 366 deals with the power of the High Court to transfer cases. Section 367 deals with the power of the High Court to quash proceedings.<\/p>\n

I hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
